Tasting Notes
Delight in bold aromas of ripe blackberry, black cherry, and plum, accented by classic Zinfandel notes of cracked black pepper and warm baking spice. On the palate, this Livermore Valley Zin is fruit-forward and full-bodied, layering dark berry flavors with a touch of vanilla and a smooth, satisfying finish.
Winemaking Details
Sourced from select Livermore Valley vineyards and crafted in the small-lot, hands-on style Mitchell Katz Winery is known for. The fruit is picked for richness and balance, then fermented to highlight Zinfandel’s vibrant character and finished with oak aging to round the texture and add spice-driven complexity.
Food Pairings
A perfect match for BBQ ribs, grilled sausages, tri-tip, and smoky burgers. It also pairs beautifully with pepperoni pizza, spiced pasta, braised meats, and aged cheddar or gouda.
