Siduri's Little Brother: 2016 Novy Family Winery Carlisle Vineyard Zinfandel Russian River Valley
Wine Enthusiast referred to Zinfandel as “California’s own grape” although its origins can be traced back to Croatia. But, if you’re looking for high-quality Zinfandel there’s one place that should be on your radar, Russian River Valley.
Russian River Valley is a wine cultivation paradise. Admired by some of the most important wine critics in the world. Wine Spectator expressed its feelings in an article titled “Loving Russian River Valley to death” where they wrote that “it's a remarkable place to grow wine, one of the best and most versatile wine regions in California, capable of producing excellent Zinfandels.”
Today, we have one of these excellent RRV Zinfandels, Adam Lee's 94-point 2016 Novy Family Winery 'Carlisle Vineyard' Zinfandel Russian River Valley.
Produced by Adam Lee, a legend in the world of wine and one of the most important winemakers in California. If you haven’t heard of him, perhaps his winery Siduri will ring the bell. Siduri is a cult-status winery located in California. While Siduri is one of the most recognized wine brands in the US; at Novy Winery, Adam has a different approach, playing with grapes and styles to produce fun, vibrant and unique wines. Novyis the fun little brother of Siduri.
Since its inception, Novy's wines have been highly favored. Wine Spectator has even featured them among the “Top 100 wines of the year” on different occasions.So it makes sense that Vinous Media called this an “absolutely gorgeous"wine that is“Rich, dense and explosive” in its 94-point review. Thanks to a successful harvest in 2016 Adam produced one of his finest Zinfandels to date!
