2021 Seghesio Family Vineyards Saini Farms Zinfandel
Planted in 1926, these vineyard blocks are some of the oldest in the Dry Creek Valley and farmed by fourth generation Saini family members. The Seghesio and Saini families have a long and rich history of working together over four generations. Our Saini Farms Zinfandel is sourced mainly from old vine blocks planted on the Dry Creek bench, which is composed of gravelly clay loam with a striking red color and exceptional drainage that stresses the vines, encouraging concentration and structure in the resulting wine

On the nose, it exudes a delightful combination of brightness and earthiness, offering captivating notes of cherry cola and blackberry pie. Upon sipping, the wine impresses with its remarkable intensity and structural depth, unveiling a silky, dense fruitiness that caresses the palate. The tasting experience continues to evolve with nuances of dark chocolate shavings, star anise, and raspberry, leading to a rich and lingering finish enhanced by a subtle dusting of spice.
