winemaker's notes:

This old vine Zinfandel has a concentrated nose of spice, cherry and plum. It offers a jammy rich mouthfeel with great nuances of French and Hungarian oak. Soft tannins add to the luscious texture of this delightful wine. These compact berries produce wines that explode on impact in the mouth, with layers of blackberries, cassis and liquorice. Great with hearty pasta dishes, spicy barbecue ribs or your own favorite beef dish.

I would buy this wine again
I picked up a bottle of Gnarly on a whim during my last trip to the wine shop (I liked the logo art and the description). For the price, I figured, why not? I'm so glad I did. This is a gentle wine that is full of flavor. Take everyone's advice and let it breathe for an hour or so before dipping in, though. I didn't and as a result the spice really shone through. Still a great wine and one that I'll be targeting and bragging about from now on. Oh, and I'll second the call to redesign the horrendous cork. My advice, screw in near the edge of the bottle to break the seal a bit. Worked for me, might for you. Enjoy.

Tried Gnarley by the recommendation of my local liquor store owner. Absolutely blown away! It is my wine of choice now, It is an easy to love wine, open and no bite, goes with anything! People should be as nice as this wine! Try it and you will become a devote!

Kosher wine
Kosher
A Kosher wine begins like every other - as grapes on a vine. Once they reach the winery for crushing, the wine is under strict rabbinal supervision.
Screw Cap wine
Screw Cap
Many studies report and winemakers agree that screw caps protect wine better and preserve its flavor more effectively than cork. More importantly, screw caps eliminate cork taint caused by TCA, a compound which develops in a small percentage of corks and ruins the taste of wine.
