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.

Our best zinfandel vintage ever! A succinct bloom period aided in the biggest challenge of growing zinfandel: even ripening. Then, the unusually cool summer allowed the fruit to ripen morphologically before the heat of the classic Indian summer spiked the sugars to optimum levels. At harvest, the vines yielded just 2.5 tons per acre of evenly ripened, concentrated fruit. This wine's succulent, briary/brambly, and spicy white pepper qualities reflect a sense of place and distinguish this thoroughbred from our stable of Zins. Black currant fruit tones and spicy, dark berry notes profile read more...

Seghesio puts out relaibly good Zins - typically nice and spicy with good fruit/berry flavors. The Cortina is a favorite.

OUTSTANDING Zin. Especially, if opened for several hours prior to drinking. Great jammy flavors with phenomenal nose.
