Description:
Talmage Vineyard is in Mendocino County, a little south and east of Ukiah. It is an old vineyard up on the bench with head pruned vines and low yield.
Five tons of ripe fruit were harvested on September 24 at 25.5° brix. The grapes were put through the destemmer into several small fermentation tanks and Bordeaux yeast was added immediately. On October 10, after 16 days, the must was pressed and the wine put into American oak barrels for 18 months. Only 270 cases were produced.
A big Zinfandel. This wine shows the vibrant lush flavors of grape harvest. Pomegrante, bright plum, dried fig and bright acidity all come together to make this wine a BIG ZIN lover’s dream come true.
