WINE DESCRIPTION
Dry Creek Vineyard Zinfandel Old Vine is a premium wine produced by Dry Creek Vineyard, a renowned winery located in the Dry Creek Valley appellation of Sonoma County, California. This wine is made from grapes grown on old vines, which are known for producing smaller yields of intensely flavored fruit. The winemaking process involves careful selection of the best grapes, followed by fermentation and aging in oak barrels to enhance the wine's complexity and depth. The resulting wine is a rich and full-bodied Zinfandel based blend with notes of blackberry, raspberry, and spice, balanced by a firm tannic structure and a long, smooth finish.
