Tasting Notes

April 1, 2005 - Our second bottling of Zinfandel comes from my family’s Home Ranch in the heart of Rutherford, one of Napa Valley’s premium grape growing districts. This vintage includes a small percentage of Petite Sirah that complements the rich, dark fruit intensity and the spicy, berry character of our Zinfandel fruit. Ripe black fruit aromas are mixed with delightful spices and vanilla from aging in oak barrels. Luscious black cherry and brambly-berry fruit mixed with touches of pepper and spice contribute to an extensive array of flavors. This is a ripe, structured Zinfandel: a step up from the 2002. Only 300 cases were produced.

LMAO Nora....only this place

White Zinfandel is the only alcohol my wife and I will drink, but that is on very rare occasions. Would I buy it? No, but I'd drink a bottle for free on a special occassion.

Zinfandel is a beefy, complex red wine...WAY different than White Zinfandel, the pink fruity wine that you and your wife are accustomed to.

smoking loon is classic Nora!!
