Zeni 2018 Amarone della Valpolicella Classico
$34.99–$336.00Veneto Italy
James Suckling 93 Rating
Nice balance of fresh and dried, lightly raisiny fruit here, complemented by hints of sweet herbs and spices and a tiny orangey twang that brightens up the flavors on the full-bodied palate. The tannins are well integrated and the fruit pushes through nicely. Drink or hold.
Must be ordered.

Zeni 2019 Marogne Valpolicella Superiore Ripasso
$19.99–$216.00Veneto Italy
James Suckling 92 Rating
A juicy red with lovely cherry-chocolate character and a soft, mouth-filling palate that’s quite full-bodied. The soft, velvety tannins are just right for carrying the fruit character. Great balance here. Delicious.

Ziata 2014 Green Valley Pinot Noir
$39.99Russian River Valley California
Wine Enthusiast 91 Rating
From a great site in this cool appellation, this wine shines with a powerful grip of ripe cherry and strawberry fruit and earthy undertones of dried herb and cardamom cola. Layered and dense, it has a seductively smooth texture and bite of minerality. R14-1 -

Zorzal Wines 2017 Eggo Tinto de Tiza
$24.99–$126.00Tupungato Mendoza Argentina
Wine Advocate 94 Rating
The mouthfeel of the 2017 Eggo Tinto de Tiza was like biting into a piece of chalk (“tiza” is the Spanish word for chalk), the texture provided by the limestone-rich soils from Gualtallary, especially in the higher part of this large region. This wine is not about the varieties (it's a blend to start with) but about the place, the soils, the local vegetation, the austerity and the wilderness.

Zuccardi 2016 Malbec Finca Piedra Infinita
$149.99Uco Valley Mendoza Argentina
I was blown away by the 2016 Finca Piedra Infinita, a wine I have been anticipating because I’ve seen the progression of the wine over the last few years. They use almost 40 different components to make this wine from small plots within the vineyard, especially the soils they call “supercalcáreo” (super limestone). The other type of soil they use is what they call “gravas calcáreas” (limestone gravels), and they don’t use any of the grapes from the deeper soils that go into the Q range. The wine has reached a stratospheric level of precision, symmetry and elegance in 2016 that is really captivating. Everything seems to be in its place; there is great harmony, the aromatics are clean and pure and the texture is like liquid chalk. There is power and elegance, energy and finesse. This is a really outstanding wine that summarizes the hard work at Zuccardi in the last few years. Bravo! 6,400 bottles were filled in February 2017. Drink: 2019-2036. -
Zuccardi 2017 Malbec Concreto
$34.99Mendoza Argentina
James Suckling 96 Rating
This is a unique wine for Mendoza with a cool-fruit and serious slate character. Undertones of dried herbs and bark. Full body, integrated fruit and tannins. Wet earth, too. Reminds me of the reds in Spain's Galicia, but so new in Argentina. Drink now but better in 2020. SP40-3
