Description

Enjoy this beautiful trio of California Zinfandels. 


2014 Arista Smokey Ridge Vineyard Zinfandel


Layers of blackberry preserves, plum, black licorice, and blueberry pie filling combine with a grilled meat, savory quality to make the 2014 Smokey Ridge Vineyard Zinfandel a true powerhouse. On the palate, the incredible density and concentration is balanced by a lifted acidity, abundant yet polished tannins, and a graphite note that carries the plush and mouth-filling blue and black fruit. The hillside location of this vineyard, and the addition of a touch of Petite Sirah, are evident in the inky color and super-extracted fruit that persist on the palate for a full minute or more. Peak drinking window: 2016 through 2026.


2014 Rombauer Vineyard Zinfandel


This California Zinfandel is dark purple-ruby, with a youthful red hue. The nose entices with scents of raspberry, cranberry, licorice and spice. Lush and concentrated flavors of ripe cherry, dark berries and vanilla flood the palate, followed by touches of pepper and spice. Very fine tannins and great length make for a satisfying finish.


2015 Wesolek Zinfandel


Beautifully balanced with big berry and a touch of acidity. Very easy to drink alone or with food.
