2005 Bacigalupi Vineyard Zinfandel

Winemaker's Notes
The nose exhibits concentrated blackberries, dark chocolate and black pepper with unadulterated wild raspberry jam. The same depth of fruit fills your mouth with hints of roasted cocoa, coffee and anise. Full and concentrated in the mouth, the finish is thick, lush and maturely tannic. 15.1% alc.

Detailed Wine Information

| Appellation: |
Russian River Valley |
| Vineyard Notes: |
The grapes for this wine come from a small block of old vine zinfandel in the Russian River Valley. The Bacigalupi zinfandel vineyard is less than 2 acres of 90+ year-old head pruned vines, which naturally yield low tonnage that produces very concentrated wines. |
| Vintage Notes: |
For this wine, Bob selected hand-made French oak barrels, with medium-plus toast. The wine was aged for 14 months in Francois Freres, Troncais oak barrels, 84% one-year-old, 16% two-year-old.
