Zinfandel Reserve, Carl's Vineyard
Vintage: 2007

Appellation: Dry Creek Valley
Vineyard: Carl's Vineyard
Winemaker: Diane Wilson

Tasting notes:
Carl’s Vineyard produces fruit with rich dark cherry flavors that also hold subtle and interesting undertones. Our ’07 Carl’s Reserve proudly displays these qualities and more.
Deep-set aromas of black cherry are dusted with oak notes and a touch of spice. A smooth, elegant mouthfeel, supple tannins and voluptuous texture surround layers of ripe dark cherry, rich chocolate, cola and subtle white pepper. Slightly chewy mid-palate with a lovely coffee, mocha and berry essence to bring up the finish. Before you know it, your glass is empty and you’re wondering how that happened.

Winemaking notes:
Hand-harvested and fermented in open-top vats with three daily punch downs.
