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.

I really enjoyed this vintage and from this producer. Opened it in 2009 and have but one bottle left. Sadly this wine is totally unavailable where I live.

Wine Skinny

This is a gentler, lower-alcohol version Zinfandel than many California winemakers produce. Blended with 8% Petite Sirah, the wine still includes the spice and pepper of Zinfandel, but in a more elegant, integrated wine. Drink now and over the next three or four years.
