20. Black Sears Zinfandel Napa Valley Howell Mountain Estate (2010)
Smoke, fudge and soil tones accent the core of black fruit on the nose. This is a big wine, fairly dry, with a lovely firm texture and slightly creamy flavors that, juxtaposed against the firmness, make for an elegant and powerful mouthfeel. There’s plenty of earthy mountain fruit here in the blackberry end of the spectrum turning more black raspberried on the moderately long finish. 92 points
