• 2006 Highlands Howell Mtn Zinfandel:– A Zinfandel Lover's treat with traditional

varietal spice and fruit. An intense ruby wine reminiscent of blue and black berry aromas infused with delicious spice and a hint of persimmon that translates from nose to palate with a gentle full balance that exemplifies this varietal. The exceptional wine pairs well with a traditional preparation of pork or a spicy roasted chicken. Aged 18 months in 25% new French Oak barrels.

– Sold out, no longer available from the winery

Best Tweet: Napa Valley Zinfandel
