Liar's Dice

2008 Sonoma County Zinfandel

The Murphy-Goode Liar's Dice Zinfandel from the 2008 vintage showcases the rich and vibrant characteristics typical of Sonoma County wines. This sumptuous red offers a full-bodied experience, with a delightful balance of acidity that elevates its lush fruit flavors. Expect an array of juicy blackberries, raspberries, and hints of baking spices that meld beautifully together, creating an inviting palate. The tannins are notably structured yet harmonious, providing a firm backbone without overpowering the wine's fruit intensity. This Liar's Dice Zinfandel is decidedly dry, allowing the expressive flavors to shine without the distraction of excessive sweetness, making it a fantastic choice for pairing with a variety of hearty dishes.

Sonoma County

Many of California's world-class wines come from Sonoma County, separated from Napa by the Mayacamas Mountains. Three times the size of Napa, Sonoma is an incredibly diverse region. Cool coastal zones, fog-cloaked hillsides, sheltered valleys and craggy exposed peaks give Sonoma a vast array of terroirs and microclimates. Its many sub-regions produce a broad range of styles: from the bold Cabernets of Alexander Valley to the fragrant Pinots of Sonoma Coast and the sublime Chardonnays of Chalk Hill.
