Description
I have had the privilege of working with the iconic Brandlin Vineyard since 1991. These 90-year old dry-farmed vines consistently produce an atypical complex and balanced.Zinfandel The 2016 vintage—classic Brandlin! Brilliant medium ruby with an array of aromatic notes—bramble fruits, white pepper, basil, rose petal, and a touch of sweet oak. The palate entry is gentle, leading to flavors of anise and strawberry. The wine embraces that PF goal of a structure that is elegant, balanced, lively and refreshing. The lengthy finish will return to remind you how much you are enjoying this wine.
