Carlisle Zinfandel Pagani Ranch 2021

Vibrant cherry and citrus peel leap from the glass with appealing immediacy. Sweet baking spices add welcome complexity to the aromatic profile. The palate shows good energy but lacks the mid-palate density Pagani Ranch typically delivers. A somewhat hollow center detracts from an otherwise promising wine.
