Zinfandel,. Dry Creek Valley

Zinfandel,. Dry Creek Valley Wine Details
Price:

Description: This wine is made from the same 90 year old dry farmed vines as the "Papa Nonno " . The difference is the fruit was allowed to develop flavors of greater intensity by waiting for higher sugar levels and eliminating the mixed white grapes. This Zin is classic Dry Creek with bright fruit flavors of briary blackberry, raspberry, and boysenberry combined with spice and moderate oak. Wonderfully balanced , supple and not overly extracted. Pairs well with lamb, braised meat sauced entries, pasta and other fancy haut cuisine.
