Continente Vineyard Zinfandel

Continente Vineyard Zinfandel Wine Details
Price: $18.99 per bottle

Description: This historic head pruned and dry farmed vineyard is located at the foot of Mt. Diablo, just west of Oakley, in Contra Costa County near the entrance to the San Francisco Bay. The vines sit in a sloping sandy soil and many of them are over 100 years old. This rich and intense wine displays a bouquet reminiscent of black cherries with evident chocolate and succulent plums. The flavors are ripe black cherry with currants, anise and a hint of coconut. This wine is a tribute to the Continente family for preserving a treasured vineyard.
