Distributor's Notes:

"93% Zinfandel (Sierra Moon Vineyard, Fair Play AVA, Sierra Foothills, California), 7% Petite Sirah (Element 79 Vineyards, Fair Play AVA, Sierra Foothills, California). Just south of Placerville, at an elevation of 2400 feet you will find the Fair Play AVA. High mountainsides and deep granite soils develop grapes for intense wines. It’s astounding to us that this area has been growing incredible wine grapes since the California Gold Rush, yet it is still a relatively unknown, untapped goldmine of high quality fruit! Each vineyard is picked separately. The grapes are crushed and Destemmed. Cold soaking for 3 days. Fermentation at 85ºF. Rack and Return. Extensive skin maceration – 10 to 20 days. Aged and blended in French oak for 9 months, 30% new. 13.5% alcohol. 1800 cases produced."
