Russian River Valley Zinfandel

Russian River Valley Zinfandel Wine Details
Price: $30.00 per bottle

Description: The warm harvest of 2004 was perfect for zinfandel, especially the old vines of Feeney Ranch. In this blend, 2004 gave us a great lushness along with thick cherry and berry fruit, while still maintaining the focus and structure that Dutton-Goldfield prefers in our wines. In the nose, the wine leads with aromas of cherry cobbler and candied cranberries, with a touch of roasted nuts and vanilla as overtones. The mouth follows with bright cherry and berry fruit, notes of cocoa and allspice, and a wonderful combination of opulence, firmness of structure, and moderate alcohol that makes it a great food pairing wine. Drink this easy to enjoy wine with almost anything-from any home made pasta dish and a wide variety of cheeses, to roasted fowl, barbecued ribs and pot roast.
