Winemaker Notes
This tantalizing Zinfandel leaps from the glass with concentrated aromas of wild blueberry, blackberry, plum, vanilla and freshly cracked white pepper. The luxurious fruit and spice layers are echoed on the palate, where they glide across velvety tannins to a robust finish with just a hint of lingering sweetness.

The signature briary, black-peppery characteristics of the variety feature in this medium- to full-bodied wine in the first vintage that it is labeled as California AVA-now using grapes from Sonoma, Mendocino and the Central Coast. Aged in French oak, with 30% new, this wine delivers great balance, crystal clear fruit flavors and an appetizing texture, as moderate tannins grip and shape the raspberry, pepper and wild sage notes.
