Block 7 was planted in 1975, and it has been the backbone of Hendry Zinfandel since the family's very first vintage in 1992. Before that, the fruit went to other wineries and helped build George Hendry's reputation as one of Napa's great growers. Here it is blended with Block 22, a younger planting on the same bench-land west of the town of Napa, and the result is Zinfandel that behaves less like a jammy crowd-pleaser and more like a structured Napa red. The nose is perfumed, with black fruit, floral tea and a flash of orange peel; the palate is layered and firm. Proof that Zinfandel, farmed by someone who really knows the site, deserves a lot more respect than it usually gets.

"Both of these blocks are planted to Clone 2, a virus-free clone that came to FPS from Lodi. Block 7 was planted in 1975 and Block 22 in 1995. The 2022 Zinfandel Blocks 7 & 22 features floral, tea-like and even orange-like aromas, plus bold berry fruit. It's medium to full-bodied, silky-textured and open, with only the slightest hint of raisined fruit and a hint of French oak (one-third new barrels for 15 months). Finishing long and velvety, it's a fine Zin for drinking young, at a reasonable price." —Joe Czerwinski
