With its roots in the sun-drenched Napa Valley, the Thread Feathers Zinfandel 2018 is a delightful expression of the region’s rich terroir. Scoring an impressive 95 points, this wine bursts with ripe blackberries and plums, complemented by subtle hints of baking spices and a touch of vanilla from oak aging. The lush fruit is balanced by a lively acidity, making it both approachable and complex. Enjoy this Zinfandel with grilled meats or a hearty pasta dish, and you’ll find it elevates any gathering. For a wine that delivers such depth and character, it’s a smart buy for the quality, especially compared to its original retail price of $45.
