2006 Sonoma County Zinfandel
The Dry Creek Vineyard Vintner's Select Club Old Vine Zinfandel from the 2006 vintage is a delightful expression of Sonoma County's rich terroir. This red wine greets the eye with a deep garnet hue that hints at its complexity. On the palate, it presents a medium-bodied profile, perfectly balanced with a high acidity that adds vibrancy and freshness. The fruit intensity is prominent, showcasing luscious notes of ripe dark berries and black cherry, complemented by subtle hints of spice and earthy undertones. Tannins are structured and firm, providing a solid backbone while maintaining an approachable elegance. This Zinfandel is bone dry, making it an ideal companion for a variety of hearty dishes, particularly grilled meats or rich pasta sauces. The craftsmanship and care put into this wine highlight its potential for aging, allowing it to evolve gracefully in the bottle.
