Old Vine Mendocino Zinfandel is a treasure. Grown on the benchlands and slopes of mountainsides — this 60 plus year old vine Zinfandel was named for these wild-looking vines and also for the uninoculated, or “wild,” yeast ferment that was used to create it. It takes a lot of effort to tame this wild fruit, but it is worth all the trouble. Wild Thing is dangerously good! Remember – you are what you drink …. Aromas of black cherry, ripe plum and raspberry fruit combine with a hint of cigar box, and vanilla-oak baking spice loveliness. Smoothly textured in mouth, and the palate is very creamy and round, with a finish that is long with lush jammy fruit. *** Sustainably Farmed and Organically Grown*** Blend Composition: 76% Old Vine Zinfandel, 15% old vine Carignane, 9% Petite Sirah Cellar Aging: 14 months in American oak barrels—20% new and 1-yr-old, 20% 2-yr-old and 60% older French and American.
