Winemaker Ryan Leeman Notes
These grapes are hand-selected from the first vineyard John
Van Ruiten planted in 1952. The grapes are hand picked and
sorted again before going into the fermentation tanks, this
allows for only the best fruit to go into this wine.
Our 2008 Old Vine Zinfandel is packed full of blackberry,
cherry, and blueberry jam; with barrel flavors contributing
aromas of coffee, cedar, and finishing with licorice. A big
finish of age worthy tannin and it’s full body suggest pairing
with a robust meal of your finest cheese.
