Michael David Winery Lodi Zin Old Vine Zinfandel 2020

This Zinfandel is crafted from old vines in Lodi, California, a region known for its warm climate and sandy loam soils that contribute to the wine's rich fruit character. The grapes are harvested at optimal ripeness to ensure concentrated flavors. Fermentation occurs in stainless steel tanks to preserve the fruit's natural vibrancy, followed by aging in a combination of French and American oak barrels, which imparts subtle spice and vanilla notes. The resulting wine is full-bodied with ripe blackberry and plum flavors, balanced by a touch of pepper and a smooth, lingering finish.
