About This Wine

Premier Old Vine Zinfandel

Renwood’s Premier Old Vine Zinfandel is a compilation of grapes from some of the most exceptional iconic vineyards. This wine gets its personality from the 50 to 100-year-old vines where the grapes are grown from. Well balanced acidity ensures it will age famously over the next several years.

Wine Region

Amador County

Southeast of Sacramento, Amador County in California is nestled up against the foothills of the Sierra Nevada Mountains. Running west to east, the region experiences a diurnal temperature shift that is extremely common within California's wine regions. Hot and sunny days, where temperatures sometimes can reach 100 degrees during the peak of summer, are mitigated by winds coming off the nearby mountains, which lead to cooler evenings. This shift allows grapes ample time for ripening during the day while developing natural acidity at night. Because of the dry and hot climate, bigger varietals like Zinfandel thrive in the environment.

Tasting Notes

  • A figure representing the Fresh Herbs tasting note. Fresh Herbs
  • A figure representing the Blackberry tasting note. Blackberry

The wine expresses itself aromatically with nuances of fresh blackberry and cranberry with ever so subtle hints of savory dried herbs. The tannin structure is finely polished, and its juicy backbone is the major player from front to back in this classic beauty. Well balanced acidity ensures it will age famously over the next several years.
