Old Vine literally means that the vines are at least 50 years old or older at the time of harvest. Due to their far reaching root systems, subtleties are developed one would not find in a standard wine. Zin is praised for its versatility. Zinfandel grapes yield dry, full-bodied, intensely flavored red wines with substantial tannins. Premium Zins are rich and peppery with a lush texture and ripe fruit flavors.
John has won many medals for this premium Zinfandel and some comments from the judges are: “Brilliant Clarity” “Intense Color” “Complex bouquet” “Well balanced” “Chocolate” “Smooth, full-bodied and overwhelming”
