2016 Zinfandel
In Stock
Long regarded as the quintessential “California” grape, Zinfandel played an historic role in the emergence of California as a producer of flavorful, delicious wines. Widely planted throughout the state by the early wine pioneers, the grape is valued for its rich flavors and suitability to the climate. Our 2015 Napa Valley Zinfandel was produced from 47-year-old vines grown in the Mayacamas Range, 2,000 feet above the valley floor.

Winemaker Notes
Made from dry-farmed, old-vine grapes, this robust mountain-grown Zinfandel is pure pleasure in a glass, with head-turning aromas of dark plum, brambly blackberry, and briary spice, as well as hints of cedar and toasty oak. On the lush palate, juicy flavors of black cherry and ripe boysenberry are underscored by a velvety mouthfeel that glides to an exotic fruit-and-spice finish.
