Tasting Notes
Our 2004 Zinfandel exemplifies the finest quality fruit this valley has to offer. Providing the fruit with plenty of hang time on the vine ensures even ripening. Our program also includes extended bottling aging for up to 2 years. This wine features concentrated flavors of cherry and raspberry mingled with soft hints of barrel spice and black pepper. With extraordinary richness this wine unfolds on your palate with a wonderful balance of acidity and tannins.
