This Zinfandel comes from both old vine parcels on the hillside benches and vineyards along the valley floor of
Dry Creek itself. These parcels are farmed by dedicated
and meticulous growers. This ideal combination of site and vigilant farming create well defined zin expression.
Notes:
"A real spice bomb, loaded with black cherry and caramel notes and jammy, appealingly complex huckleberry, toasty licorice and loamy sage flavors." T.F.
This Dry Creek offering shows that Zinfandel can be sophisticated and elegant and gains complexity with pairing. As such, excellent food pairings include roasted duck, veal, and grilled salmon as well as pastas and subtle-flavored cheeses.
