winemaker's notes:

Blend: 77% Zinfandel, 17% Petite Sirah, 6% Carignane

This elegant, full-bodied wine, with its firm tannins and intense, complex fruit, is among the finest of recent vintages. Enjoyable now, it will develop further over the next ten years.

  Luscious! - 3/28/2008
I would buy this wine again

I will admit, I love wine and mostly drink good wine. This was one terrific Zin. I decanted it for 15 minutes and it opened up superbly. Very full and aluringly tannic, this is one to add to the cellar. I actually added 2 bottles to my own! A must have for a full boddied wine lover!

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.

Organically grown grapes
Organically Grown Grapes

Collectible wine
Collectible
