Wine Profile
Vineyard Notes
This vineyard has sweeping sun exposures from
southeast to northwest and sits at nearly 1,200-feet in
elevation. It has nine distinct blocks of Zinfandel
and each is harvested at different times and
fermented separately to ensure the integrity and
uniqueness of each block. The varied sun exposures,
soil compositions, slopes and drainages make these
sites a winemaking dream come true and are what
make our Rockpile Ridge Zinfandel so spectacular.
Winemaker Notes
Our 2022 Rockpile Ridge Vineyard Zinfandel exudes
rich aromas of warm baked blackberry cobbler, black
fig drizzled in balsamic, crushed sassafras and sweet
earthen spice with lingering notes of cola berry. The
entry is driven by ripe juicy dark fruits, a firm core of
mountain tannins and lingering flavors of spice.
This Zinfandel will be even more fabulous with 1-2
hours of aeration. Enjoy over the next 10-12 years.
