2013 Zinfandel Old Vine

Sold Out

Overview

The 2013 Sarah’s Vineyard Old Vine Zinfandel is a classic. Zinfandel is a historic cultivar in Santa Clara Valley, as it is throughout California. This Old Vine bottling originates from our neighbors, the venerable Besson Vineyard. This historic property was originally planted in 1922; its gnarly, head-pruned vines are things of beauty. The small yields of concentrated fruit off these old Zin vines are the very definition of terroir, redolent with history and their sense of place. In this 2013 vintage release, fresh cherry, plum, and floral blackberry aromas are accented by notes of mocha, black pepper and cinnamon. The palate gives an impression of a floral cherry and plum pie with just a dash of savory soy sauce. This Old Vine Zinfandel begs to be paired to grilled beef or lamb or pork.
