    		1999 1999 Old Vines Estate Zinfandel
  • Appellation: Lodi
    Peirano Estate Vineyards (Acampo, CA) -- (Winery Info & All Wines)
  • Winemaker: Lance Randolph
  • The deceptively subtle aromas of this wine combine dark plum, licorice, anise, black tea and cherry tobacco. In the mouth, the palate is wrapped in a velvety mix of plum, bay leaf, cherry and anise, with smooth, chiseled tannins, leading to a lengthy, almost breathless finish. This is a wine for great food, friends and conversation, or an intimate meal for two by a flickering fire. Whichever your pleasure, our Old Vine Zinfandel will make it memorable.

  • Appellation: Napa Valley
    RustRidge Winery (St. Helena, CA) -- (Winery Info & All Wines)
  • Winemaker: Susan Meyer
  • The 2003 Estate Zinfandel embodies the definition of Zinfandel aromatics and flavors crafted in the classic claret style. Upon the initial pour, the eye is greeted with a deep garnet color and the nose with cocoa powder and bright raspberry. This medium bodied Zinfandel has an amazing framework of acidity, dusty tannins and a long, dry finish. As the wine begins to open, the tannins become silkier and the viscosity of the wine increases, eventually morphing into raspberry and cherry jam hedonism... ...read more

    Barra of Mendocino (Redwood Valley, CA) -- (Winery Info & All Wines)

Power and finesse. Harvested by flavors not sugar, our zinfandel boasts ripeness together with acidity to liven it up and carry a refreshing finish.

  • Appellation: Lodi
    Borra Vineyards (Lodi, CA) -- (Winery Info & All Wines)
  • Winemaker: Steve Borra
  • Our Zinfandel delivers exactly what Lodi's renowned old vines are famous for: huge, almost decadent fruit. Smoky-clove-cinnamon-spiced cherries, raisins, and plums with a dash of black pepper waft from the glass. Imbibe for mouth-filling, creamy, almost sweet Boysenberries with molasses, smoky toasted oak, walnut and a long finish of black currants and dark grapes. Drop everything and reach for some barbecued spareribs, because you won’t find a better pairing.
