Enjoy this 1.5 Liter bottle of this wonderful Zinfandel!

This is the most balanced of the winery's many 2011 Zins. It's also half the price of the vineyard designates. With raspberry, cherry and cola flavors set in a flurry of spices, it doesn't have the massive overripeness of the others. But that's exactly why it's a more appealing and food-friendly wine.

Peachy Canyon is a small, family owned winery that has gained a reputation for their highly acclaimed Zinfandels, Cabernets and Merlots. Nestled in the Santa Lucia Mountains just six miles west of Paso Robles and 14 miles inland from the Pacific Ocean, the winery exemplifies the contrasts of a region which is ideally suited for growing a premium red wine grape. Pastoral and peaceful on the one hand, the vines grown in this area must struggle to succeed in meager soils stressed by daytime temperatures that soar into the hundreds and nighttime temperatures that plunge into the forties. This results in small yields of intensely flavored grapes.
