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

Today's Zinfandels are getting so high in alcohol that it's almost refreshing to see one cross over to the Late Harvest category. It's just not that much of a stretch to go from a 17% Zinfandel table wine to a 17% or 18% late harvest wine - it's just that you EXPECT the latter to be sweet and unctuous.And this wine is all of that. Perfect for the night with your love partner next to the fireplace, you know, when you want to bury two knuckles deep into your love rug.
