2007 Storybook Napa Estate Reserve Zinfandel
One 750ml bottle
Jerry and Sigrid Seps select the barrels for this reserve, the top lot from their hillside estate overlooking Mount St. Helena and the Palisades in northern Napa Valley. The vineyard forms an amphitheatre facing northeast, with enough cool morning sun to ripen the grapes with the kind of pure, fresh fruit flavors that Bordeaux's first growths attain in the finest vintages. But rather than the black currant depths of cabernet, here it's zin's basket of raspberries, cool and delicious. This is perfectly formed, youthfully floral, with sweetness in the fruit tannin that captures the late autumn sun.
