2018 Chiles Mill Zinfandel - Wine Spectator - 92 "A real briar patch of a Zin, with appealingly rustic wild cherry, spiced cinnamon and bay leaf accents that take on richness toward zesty tannins. Drink now through 2029. " -Tim Fish

2021 Heminway Reserve Zinfandel - In 1969, Jay Heminway was teaching sculpture in Berkeley when he made his way to Napa Valley and founded Green & Red Vineyard. Jay continued to sculpt here, both the hills around him – planting three magnificent vineyards – and world-class Zinfandel wines. This Heminway Estate Reserve is a tribute to Jay and continues in his tradition, with his unique cuvée crafted from select lots from all three of our vineyards. Only five barrels were made of this restrained and elegant Zinfandel, which bears hints of violet, tea, cassis, and other black fruits, with a long finish that invites contemplation.

2018 Tip Top Zinfandel -Wine & Sprits - 94 "Tip Top is, unsurprisingly, Green & Red’s highest-elevation vineyard. At elevations of 1,800 to 2,000 feet, the parcel includes a mix of cordon- and head-trained vines planted in the green-tinged serpentine gravels and red chert for which the winery is named. Winemaker Aaron Whitlatch has preserved mountain environs in the fruit here, warm plums scented with pine, bay laurel and madrone. It’s focused and lean, with a claret-like center of gravity tethered to foresty tannins. For lamb shoulder."
