From The Winemaker

-Jennifer Higgins, V.P. Winemaker + General Manager

Tasting Notes

Grown on one of the most spectacular vineyards in California, the 2023 Monte Rosso Zinfandel exudes a sense of place. Old Vines (planted in 1900) grow in red, volcanic soils more than 1,000 feet up on Moon Mountain. The combination of old vines, soil, and elevation imparts a gentleness and elegance to the wine.

Luscious fruit notes of cranberry and pomegranate continue on the palate complemented by lively acidity, well-integrated tannins, and a juicy finish. The balance, elegance, and firm texture make it a perfect
