100% Zinfandel from Mendocino, California Juicy, energetic, and far more nuanced than one may expect. This is not the high-alcohol fruit bomb style some associate with Zin, nor is it the sweet pink juice that your aunt drank in the 80s. Think blackberry, plum, blueberry compote, cracked black pepper, baking spice, and a touch of wild herbs. Somewhere between medium and full-bodied, with vibrant acidity and supple tannins. This is a great pick for fans of Syrah or old-vine California reds who appreciate spice and freshness as much as ripe fruit character. Founded by winemaker Samantha Sheehan.
