What Critics Think
Wine Spectator : 93 Points
(4/30/2025) Tightly wound at the core but polished on the palate, with rich and detailed blackberry, currant, bittersweet chocolate and espresso flavors that gather tension and richness toward broad-shouldered tannins. Best from 2026 through 2034. 1,300 cases made.
Wine Advocate : 92 Points
(10/17/2024) Both of these blocks are planted to Clone 2, a virus-free clone that came to FPS from Lodi. Block 7 was planted in 1975 and Block 22 in 1995. The 2022 Zinfandel Blocks 7 & 22 features floral, tea-like and even orange-like aromas, plus bold berry fruit. It's medium to full-bodied, silky-textured and open, with only the slightest hint of raisined fruit and a hint of French oak (one-third new barrels for 15 months). Finishing long and velvety, it's a fine Zin for drinking young, at a reasonable price. Drink Date: 2024 - 2030.
