2015 Landy Vineyard Zinfandel

Tasting Notes

The steep hillsides and high elevation of this vineyard site bring intensity of flavor and depth. This complex Zinfandel is velvety soft on the palate with supple tannin and showing more boysenberry and bit of umami. The finish lingers, with oak and vanilla, and a hint of black licorice.

Winemaker's Notes

The Landy Vineyard sits at 1000-foot elevation in the Sweetwater Springs District of the Russian River Valley. This gorgeous vineyard sits atop a knoll above the fog line giving it longer sun exposure than most of the Russian River Valley. We take fruit from four different blocks on this ranch, each with unique exposures and soil types. This variety lends to greater character and complexity in the finished wine.
