2009 Lodi Zinfandel
The Gnarly Head Old Vine Zin from the renowned Lodi region is a delightful expression of Zinfandel that showcases the character of its old vines. This red wine exudes a medium-bodied richness that is both approachable and satisfying. On the palate, it delivers vibrant and juicy fruit intensity with bold notes of ripe blackberry, raspberry, and a hint of pepper, seamlessly complemented by subtle oak nuances. The acidity is bright and refreshing, adding liveliness to the wine, while the tannins are firm yet smooth, providing structure without overshadowing the fruit. Dry in style, this Zinfandel captures the essence of its terroir, making it a perfect companion for hearty dishes or simply enjoyed on its own.
