Bedrock Esola Vineyard Zinfandel

2020 Vintage- From Denise Esola’s Zinfandel planted at 1600’ elevation in the center of the Shenandoah Valley appellation of Amador County.  Always one of the most alluringly perfumed and exotic Zinfandels we make, the 2020 is particularly distinct even by this vineyard’s rather lofty standards. Planted on granite soils, the vineyard produces wines of beguilingly light color, crunchy red fruits, and stately structure that shimmer with nervous energy and tension.  Aged primarily in 600-gallon foudres, this is Old World meets Gold Country.
