WINE DESCRIPTION
Little Vineyards Zinfandel is a delightful wine that showcases the best of California's Sonoma County. Crafted with care by a passionate producer, this Zinfandel hails from Sonoma Valley. The grapes are sourced from vineyards which enjoy significant diurnal range, as well as coastal breezes, and thus the grapes are abe to ripen evenly and retain both concentration and freshness. Well-drained soils and optimal sun exposure result in perfectly ripe berries. The winemaking process involves careful selection and gentle handling of the grapes, followed by aging in oak barrels to enhance complexity. The end result is a wine that exudes a bold and rich style and a smooth, velvety texture.
