Produced in the old world style of balanced wine making. We want the wine to express the Amador Zinfandel terroir with good balance of fruit, French Oak, structural tannins and medium alcohol. Briary varietal Zinfandel. Deep raspberry, allspice, cloves and peppermint, balanced with a rich, full center of chocolate covered cherries and reminiscent of steak tartar. Old Vine complexity and first growth quality.
