Our inagural vintage, this Zinfandel is crafted entirely from grapes grown on our Redwood Valley estate in beautiful Mendocino County. 1998 was a cool, late growing season. The fruit was crushed and kept on the skins for two weeks after dryness. Aged in tanks and then finished in American Oak barrels, the result is a deep and rich wine with complexity and balance.
