winemaker's notes:

Our Paraduxx winemaking team has been crafting a world-class red blend using Napa Valley Zinfandel since 1994. Decoy Zinfandel allows us to explore this robust and appealing grape as a stand-alone wine. It offers the concentration and complexity that has made the Napa Valley famous, while highlighting classic Zinfandel elements of raspberry, strawberry jam, white pepper, cedar and spice.

alcohol by volume: 14.5%
critical acclaim:

"This wonderful wine showcases the blender's art. The grapes come from 11 appellations throughout the valley, and the wine, while notable for its delicious flavors, also is great in structure. It has soft tannins and refreshing acidity, and is entirely dry, with moderate alcohol. Those flavors include raspberry jam, cherry-vanilla cream, cinnamon and white pepper. So easy to like."

Wine Enthusiast

"Dark tones of iodine, sassafras and blackberries meld in this zin’s cool, spicy intensity. The texture is lean and supple, the flavors long. Decant it for grilled lamb chops."

rating (12/8/2011):
Cedar and blackberry on the nose. Cherry and berry on the palate. This wine actually has a finish! (I am often diappointed when I read a wine has a finish only to have it disappear on the palate.) Great price to quality ratio. Buy a case if you can find it!
