We tasted a range of Zinfandels from up and down the West Coast as well as one stand-out expression from Croatia (where, it turns out, the grape is originally from). Here are the 30 best Zinfandels to drink in 2025.
It’s Thanksgiving — or any big dinner for that matter — and you’re in a pinch. You need a few bottles of well-priced, quality wine from a store that’s still open. This is your lifeline. It’s affordable and widely distributed. It’s a very solid old-vine Zin from Sonoma with a savory nose and pops of black and blue fruit. The palate is balanced and even with soft tannins and good fruit depth. Crowd pleaser 100 percent.
