Winemaker Notes
This 1996 signature wine comes from our Dry Creek and Alexander Valley vineyards. An abundance of tropical fruit layered with sweet honey come forward in the bouquet. Flavors of honey and the sweetness of vanilla linger in the mouth with a touch of butterscotch in the long finish. This is an elegant wine and a great accompaniment to food.
Mazzocco Winery is nestled in the rolling hills of Sonoma County, perched on a saddle between the acclaimed valleys of Dry Creek and Alexander. In 2005, Mazzocco was brought into the Wilson family, who were eager to add the Zinfandel vines surrounding the winery.
Renown for its single vineyard-designate Zinfandels—wines so robust and sumptuous, they’re unforgettable. Mazzocco Zins are remarkably individual in nature—a characteristic shared with their award-winning Chardonnay, Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon.
“It’s the fruit,” confesses winemaker Antoine Favarro. Indeed, Mazzocco draws from some of the most breathtaking mountain vineyards in Sonoma County. It’s the fruit combined with history and tradition, seasoned with a little innovation, that makes Mazzocco one of the most distinctive and sought-after brands in California.
