WINE DESCRIPTION

Gnarly Head's winemaking journey, sparked by a mission for exceptional Zinfandel, led to the discovery of century-old, head-trained Zinfandel vines in Lodi, California. The challenge was embraced, resulting in authentic, bold wines with a Gnarly twist. The Gnarly Head Authentic Harvest Blend, a rich red by Gnarly Head Winery, is meticulously crafted from diverse California Central Valley vineyards. Known for unique terroir, these grapes yield a bold, complex, and full-bodied wine. With flavors of dark fruit, chocolate, and spice, culminating in a smooth finish, Gnarly Head Authentic Harvest Blend is an ideal choice for enthusiasts seeking robust, flavorful red wine.

NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER

This Gnarly Head Authentic Harvest Blend is an interesting blend of three grapes - Zinfandel, Syrah, and Petite Sirah.Its deep ruby and violet hue is the first indication of the full-bodied complexity to come. On the nose, aromas of blackberry, anise, and vanilla are complemented by undertones of black pepper, clove, and mocha. On the palate, the wine has a pleasing texture and a flavor profile of ripe cherry and blackberry, interwoven with notes of toasted oak, vanilla, and baking spice. The finish is long, elegant, and balanced. Enjoy this wine with a variety of dishes from grilled meats to a dense chocolate cake.
