Woodbridge White Zinfandel (pack of 4) (18.7cl, 9.5%)

A crisp California blush wine from Lodi, bottled at 9.5% ABV as four 187ml bottles. Woodbridge by Robert Mondavi sources grapes from a proprietary blend grown with local growers in Lodi, where warm days and cool delta breezes preserve natural acidity in red-skinned grapes. A portion is made using saignée, bleeding juice off red grape skins early in maceration, which gives the pastel hue and concentrated berry fruit. The juice is cold-fermented in stainless steel tanks. The nose shows ripe strawberry, raspberry, citrus and watermelon rind; the palate has juicy strawberry and raspberry, watermelon and cherry, with bright acidity balancing the sweetness. The finish is clean and moderately short, with red berry and citrus zest.
