WINE DESCRIPTION

Robert Craig Zinfandel is a premium wine produced by Robert Craig Winery, a renowned winery located in the Napa Valley region of California. The grapes used to make this wine are sourced from the Howell Mountain appellation, which is known for its high elevation and volcanic soil, resulting in grapes with intense flavors and complexity. The winemaking process involves careful selection of the grapes, followed by fermentation and aging in oak barrels. The resulting wine is a full-bodied Zinfandel with rich flavors of dark fruit, spice, and a hint of vanilla. It is a perfect choice for those who appreciate bold and complex wines with a long finish.

NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER

This Robert Craig Zinfandel bursts with aromas of ripe, dark berry and black pepper, along with hints of sweet tobacco and earth.The palate is rich and juicy, with a velvety texture and balanced tannins that give way to a long, spicy finish. Enjoy this wine now with a roasted pork tenderloin, or age it for a few years to reveal its full depth and complexity.
