Seghesio Old Vine Zinfandel 2022 – Award-Winning Red Wine [WS94 JD91]

Seghesio Family Vineyards’ Old Vine Zinfandel 2022 is a masterclass in California’s renowned red wine tradition, crafted from sun-kissed grapes in Sonoma County’s fertile vineyards. This bold blend combines 87% Zinfandel with Petite Sirah, Carignane, and Alicante Bouschet, delivering a harmonious balance of power and elegance that distinguishes it from everyday wines.

Aptly praised by Wine Spectator (94 points) for its “briary fruit” and “lively tannins,” this wine captivates with aromas of black plum, fig, and warm baking spices. On the palate, it unfolds into a lush tapestry of candied figs, mocha, and wild berry flavors, underscored by savory notes and a velvety texture that lingers on the finish. Jeb Dunnuck’s 91-point review highlights its “immediate charm,” with dusty earth tones and ripe tannins making it approachable now while aging gracefully over the next few years.

Perfect for savoring alongside hearty dishes or special occasions, this 15% ABV red offers intense structure without overwhelming complexity—a testament to Seghesio’s legacy of quality. Whether you’re pairing it with grilled meats or enjoying it solo, its rich layers and smooth finish make it a standout choice for Zinfandel enthusiasts seeking depth and finesse.
