Hard Working Wines by McPrice Myers 2021 Zinfandel Pound for Pound

Hard Working Zinfandel "Pound for Pound" is a striking example of Paso Robles value-packed wine: jammy yet structured, spicy yet fresh, and layered with complexity that belies its price tag. Ideal for casual gatherings, BBQ nights, or anytime you want big flavor without fuss.

🍇 Origins & Style

  • Part of the "Hard Working" value range by vintner Mac Myers, this Zinfandel is sourced from Paso Robles and Central Coast vineyards—designed to offer bold flavor without breaking the bank 

  • The 2021 vintage earned 94 pts from Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate; 2022 repeats the style: fruit-forward and prize-worthy at a modest price 

👃 Aromas & Palette

  • Aromatics: Deep ruby hue with expressive scents of wild berries, rooibos tea, wildflowers, apricot, and savory undertones like tar and underbrush 

  • The palate is medium-bodied and juicy, bursting with boysenberry, blackberry jam, dragonfruit, blood orange, and hibiscus, balanced by warm woody spices—cinnamon, sandalwood, cardamom—all framed by refreshing acidity 

🔚 Structure & Finish

  • Features a grainy yet lively finish, with fine tannins and spice-driven length—the palate stays fresh and energetic right to the end 

  • Reviewers consistently note its structure and balanced acidity, making it food-friendly and easy to enjoy on its own 

🌟 Value & Accolades

  • 94 pts (Wine Advocate, 2021), 92 pts (Wine Enthusiast), Gold medals in multiple competitions (2021–22)

  • With its sub $20 price point, it delivers premium flavor for a very approachable price—true to its "Pound for Pound" name.

🍽️ Pairing & Occasion

A perfect match for BBQ ribs, spicy chili, grilled sausage, barbecue pork belly, or pepper-crusted steak—any dish with smoky, savory spices will shine alongside it 

"The 2021 Zinfandel Pound for Pound has a deep ruby color and aromas of wild berry fruit and accents of rooibos tea, wildflowers, apricot, tar and underbrush. Medium-bodied, it floods the mouth with spicy fruit and floral streaks. It is grainy and very refreshing, with a long, detailed finish. Lovely! All that juicy fruit is ideal for barbecue and spicy dishes." Robert Parker 94 Points
