Beekeeper Cellars 2014 Montecillo Vineyard Zinfandel (Sonoma County)

Country: US / Montecillo Vineyard
Variety: Zinfandel California
Winery: Beekeeper Cellars / Sonoma County

From a hillside vineyard near Moon Mountain overlooking the Sonoma Valley, this wine was blended with 5% Petite Sirah. While not as high in alcohol as some of the producer’s other wines, it has a concentrated character on the palate, akin to blueberry syrup, with soft, moderate tannins and a dusty texture. Red and black cherry provide additional fruit flavor.
