You may have heard that Zinfandel is my favorite wine to just drink and enjoy. Zin is the best bang for your buck here in Paso Robles, which is why I call ours Pound for Pound. Stack it up against other wines at the same price point and the Zinfandel wins just about every time.

VINIFICATION

Fruit was destemmed, 3-5-day cold soak, followed by pump-overs and punchdowns 3 times a day during fermentation. Pressed into 3rd fill and neutral French and American oak barrels, puncheons, and concrete tanks.  Aged 10 months.

TASTING NOTES

Hibiscus flower, dragonfruit, mulberry, blood orange, cinnamon stick, sandalwood. Incredible freshness, palate leads with juicy, fresh fruits. Finish is lively. Energetic. Expressive. All of the fruit came from vineyards owned by the first farming family in Paso Robles - the Dusi family. Overages allowed us to include this fruit that normally would not have been included.
