Wild Thing By Carol Shelton 2022 Zinfandel

The Zinfandel master has produced an outstanding value!

Carol Shelton has been Mastering the Zen of Zin since 1978. Focusing mostly on her favorite varietal, Carol is a guru of Zinfandel. Her Wild Thing label denotes that the wine is produced using the wild yeasts found on organically grown grapes.

Old Vine Mendocino Zinfandel is a treasure. Grown on the benchlands and slopes of mountainsides — this 68+ year old vine Zinfandel was named for these wild- looking vines and also for the uninoculated, or “wild,” yeast ferment that was used to create it. It takes a lot of effort to tame this wild fruit, but it is worth all the trouble. Wild Thing is dangerously good!

From Wine Spectator (92pts): A Zin with pizzaz and an easy going personality, this serves up lively cherry, cranberry, grilled sage and black pepper flavors that end on a perky note. Drink now through 2031
