2010 Hendry Block 28 Napa Valley Zinfandel
“Napa Zinfandels offer a dust-edged nuance thatshows the variety's classiest side, and the best of our tasting absolutely echoed those characteristics.”2010 Hendry Block 28 Napa Valley Zinfandel ($35, 15.9% alcohol): George Hendry and his family have been loyal to this grape through the years, working near the base of Mount Veeder.Their Blocks 7 & 22 bottle will be a pleasure inanother year, but right now the Block 28, grown on
thin Boomer soils, shows a density and berryishtang, matched to heady blue-plum flavors, almost like slivovitz brandy, and a dry-bark edge.

Hendry 2010 Block 28 Zinfandel Napa Valley 90 points
Easy and gentle in mouthfeel, this has soft, velvety tannins, but the flavors are big and complex.  It offers waves of blackberry and blueberry jam, anisette liqueur, milk chocolate, bacon and white pepper as well as a smoky, creamy touch that melts into a long, spicy finish.  It’s high in alcohol, but wears it well.
