Introduction:
Dry Creek Vineyard Old Vine Zinfandel is a bold and complex wine crafted from vines that average over 100 years old. This Old Vine Zinfandel opens with enchanting aromas of black cherry, spiced plum, and boysenberry pie, enhanced by subtle hints of white pepper, coriander, and toffee. The wine’s complexity deepens with layers of blackberry, dried cranberry, dark chocolate, espresso, and marzipan. Framed by notes of cedar and damp earth, it offers a concentrated core of dark fruit, well-structured tannins, and a rich, elegant finish.
