A full-bodied red wine from Sonoma County's Dry Creek Valley, made by Dry Creek Vineyard. The blend centres on Zinfandel with Petite Sirah and smaller amounts of Alicante Bouschet or Carignane, depending on the vintage. Fermentation runs 12 to 17 days at 82-88°F with twice-daily pumpovers, followed by 15 months in French, Hungarian and American oak, about 27% new. The vines average 90-110 years in age.
The nose opens with brooding plum and blackberry, then boysenberry, blueberry, white pepper, cardamom, toffee and dark chocolate. The palate is dark and rich, led by blackberry jam, cherry-pie filling and black plum, with baking spices, mocha and licorice. The finish is medium-long, with fine tannins, bright acidity and notes of black tea, tobacco leaf and milk chocolate.
