This delightful Zinfandel has a jammy flavor with fruity aromas of blackberry, cherry, plum and black pepper, blending nicely with the oaky notes. It makes for sipping magic, as well as a great companion for your favorite food pairings.
On the palate, this is a wine with full body characteristics, intense flavors and refreshing palate, achieving a perfect balance. Bright fruit, spice, texture, and all of the tannin is a hallmark of the high elevation vineyards of Lake County. Aged 10 months in oak (25% French).
In 2021, we experienced mild spring weather and early blooms, followed by a heatwave from
May to July. Despite the drought, our sheep helped retain soil moisture, resulting in an
early harvest from August 12th to October 20th, producing small but highly concentrated
berries. This vintage promises exceptional depth and intensity.
