ハッバワインズ『バッチ』ジンファンデル 2023、セントラルコースト

The unfiltered texture gives it a nice mouthfeel, and the balance is spot-on—robust without being too heavy. I opened a bottle with pasta last night and it paired beautifully.

The wild yeast fermentation gives it this funky, layered depth that you don’t get from most Zinfandels, and the unfiltered texture makes every sip feel a bit more real. I’ve been nursing this bottle over a few nights and the neutral oak keeps it smooth without masking the fruit.

Opened this after dinner and the unfiltered body gave it a nice, rustic texture. It paired perfectly with my grilled steak, and the wild yeast complexity really came through on the finish.
