Winery Review: True gnarly heads, these old vines yield fewer grape clusters with smaller berries than trellised vines. These mighty little berries produce intense, bold wines that are deep in color with concentrated dark fruit flavors. Our Old Vine Zinfandel has a gnarly core of rich, dark berry flavors with layers of spice, plum, pepper and vanilla balanced by light hint of toasted oak. Break out a bottle Gnarly Old Vine Zin and pair with BBQ pork ribs, moms favorite Chili or steak fajitas.
My Review: This was a medium bodied, drinkable wine with raspberry and blackberry aromas and a bit of oak in the taste. Flavors hide the high alcohol content (14.5%) very well. Great wine for the price
I did not drink this wine with food.
