St Francis Zinfandel Ov

St. Francis isn't exaggerating when they refer to this as an old vine zinfandel. Made from vines between fifty and one hundred years old sourced from a series of Sonoma County vineyards. Small amounts of petite sirah and alicante bouschet add texture and color to the field blend and the winery chooses to hand-harvest late into the season when some of the berries have raisined, intensifying the wine's character. Aged for 14 months in new American oak, this is a plump zin with layers of black cherry, raspberry and black pepper that will keep you intrigued to the bottom of the bottle.
