The palate is layered and generous, offering ripe dark fruit, pomegranate, rose petals, cocoa, and a hint of smoke that carries through to a long, polished finish. Despite its richness, the wine stays beautifully composed and lifted.\n\nThis is a Zinfandel with both power and finesse, and it should age gracefully for several years, gaining complexity while retaining its vibrant fruit and signature energy.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduction\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eGeyserville Vineyard in Sonoma’s Californien region is farmed from historic old vines rooted in well-established parcels that naturally yield concentrated fruit. The blend is led by Zinfandel, typically around 70%, with Carignan, Petite Sirah, and a touch of Alicante Bouschet rounding out the cuvée. The wine is aged for 13 months in American oak, with only about 10% new barrels, allowing the fruit and vineyard character to remain front and center.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFood \u0026amp; Serving\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis wine pairs especially well with grilled lamb, barbecue, roast duck, braised short ribs, or richly seasoned dishes with a touch of sweetness or spice.
