2007 Paso Robles Zinfandel

The Rotta Heritage Zinfandel from the 2007 vintage is a captivating red wine hailing from the esteemed Paso Robles region. This wine showcases a medium to full-bodied character, offering a delightful balance of richness and approachability that makes it incredibly food-friendly. The acidity presents itself as lively and refreshing, harmonizing beautifully with the bold fruit intensity that bursts forth on the palate. Layered with notes of ripe blackberries and cherries, it also reveals hints of spice and dark chocolate, creating a complex yet enjoyable tasting experience. The tannins are medium in structure, providing a gentle framework that enhances the wine's depth without overpowering its luscious fruit core. The Rotta Heritage is a dry wine that expresses the unique essence of Zinfandel, making it an exceptional choice for both casual gatherings and more refined occasions.

Central Coast
Central Coast

California's Central Coast might be a bit quieter than Napa or Sonoma to the north, but this lesser-known region produces many world-class wines. Enjoying incredible terroir along its vast 280-mile stretch—from San Francisco Bay to Santa Barbara—Central Coast wines are increasingly in demand. Its position between the Pacific Coast Ranges and the Southern Coast Ranges is key to its quality, with many cool-climate AVAs offering elegant Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, Syrah and Merlot. In the hotter parts of the Central Coast, away from the coastal fogs and cold mountain slopes, Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Syrah, Grenache and Mourvèdre are exceptional.
