Sutter Home is well-renowned for its sweet pink wine that is misrepresented as a White Zinfandel. I was surprised to see how well this 1980 red Zinfandel has held up. With its 15% alcohol content, the 1980 is not a bashful wine. There is no doubting its dramatic chocolatey, spicy, smoky, black cherry nose, excellent richness, and soft, luscious flavors. Fully mature, with no place to go, it should be drunk up.
