Seghesio Sonoma Zinfandel 2021

The Seghesio Sonoma Zinfandel is a collage of Northern Sonoma's vineyard landscape. While primarily estate grown, we purchase additional fruit from trusted growers to meet an ever-increasing demand for this notable wine. The extra steps we want growers to take to produce high quality fruit are not readily accepted by many. Our growers understand that timely canopy management throughout the growing season is required to produce high quality fruit. Hence, by embracing Seghesio's more costly and time-consuming quality only viticultural standards, we find that the ultimate payoff, obviously, is in the bottle. Deftly masquerading as a Zin far more luxurious and sumptuous than its asking price, Sonoma's juicy, ripe raspberry/cherry qualities and site-specific spicy, briery essence consistently hit the mark. Carefully extracted sweet oak mid-tones add texture, balance and length to the finish. Take it home! -- Ted Seghesio
