What to Expect

Zinfandel is considered America's own great indigenous grape, even though its origins lie on the Adriatic coast. Planted throughout California and the Pacific Northwest, Zinfandel is at its best in warm regions with cooler temperatures during harvest. The wines can range from off-dry Rosés, White Zinfandels, and light bistro styled wines, to big, rich powerful wines - even luscious wines for dessert bottling. The flavors range from plummy to raspberry, although deep blackberry fruit and brambly spice tones are most common.

Winemakers Notes

The 2006 Brown Estate Napa Valley Zinfandel Brilliant garnet color and romantic old world aromas make a dazzling impression in the glass. Tangerine blossoms, hibiscus flowers and layers of exotic Asian spices round out the nose. Fantastic depth and richness characterize decadent dark chocolate and deep black cherry flavors on the fleshy, velvety palate, also revealing subtle cedar, creme de cassis, and layers of cardamom, allspice andnutmeg. Fall in love for the first time all over again with this full-bodied, opulent, yet seamlessly integrated wine.This is a California Wine.
