TN: 2006 Scherrer Winery Zinfandel Old and Mature Vines Alexander Valley

  • 2006 Scherrer Winery Zinfandel Old and Mature Vines Alexander Valley - USA, California, Sonoma County, Alexander Valley (5/8/2009)
    Just now starting to come into its own. Fred knows how to make a great OMV Zin, and this one is no exception. Still young, of course, but the palate is smoothing out quite a bit and gaining weight. Spicy, rich fruits, beef jerky, stones, and a nice stone fruit finish. I will look forward to the progress of the other bottles still in the cellar as the years go by. (91 pts.)

Wow. It’s a veritable Berserker “Scherrer-fest.” [berserker.gif] I’ll have to follow this up with a review on Fred’s outstanding 05 cab!

The 06 was an excellent OMV - surpassed a bit by the 05. The 07 trumps them both!

Fred makes one (or two) of the world’s greatest Zins.

Thanks for the note. Lovin the Fred!

And very cool about CT.

Nice on the auto-post. Ed hit a glitch on his first try, so I made a little change. Let me know if you see any glitches and if so what browser.

We’re down in the RRV this weekend for my 37th B-day. We have an appointment with Fred today. Very much looking forward to it. Will report back as we are also going to Innman, Arnot- Roberts, Siduri/Novy, Holdredge, and Copain. [dance.gif]

We’re on the boat! [dance2.gif]

You got your swim trunks? And your flippy floppies?
