DESCRIPTION
El Dorado County, nestled in California’s Sierra Foothills, has a rich history of wine dating back to the 1800s. The region has many high-elevation vineyards on steep slopes that benefit from warm summer days and cool nights. There are nearly 100 varietals grown in El Dorado vineyards, but the region is especially known for the rich, textured and spice-driven Zinfandel wines it produces.
Most of the grapes that go into this Zinfandel come from El Dorado County, where warm days and cool nights allow grapes to slowly reach optimum maturity while maintaining excellent natural acidity. This, combined with minimal irrigation, results in a balanced wine, rich with varietal character. This wine spends over a year in neutral oak barrels before being bottled.
TASTING NOTES
This Zinfandel is bright purple in color with expressive red cherry and black pepper aromas with a touch of savory spice. This wine is full-bodied, with concentrated blackberry notes, a slight earthiness, and a finish of herbal notes. This wine pairs well with slow roasted BBQ ribs, a hearty chicken curry, or a fresh kale salad with lemon dressing and goat cheese.
