About the wine
Reserve single-vineyard red from Sonoma's most coveted Zinfandel hotspot
- This powerhouse Reserve is iconic Sonoma Zinfandel at its finest, with rich, decadent black fruit flavors, from plush blackberry to ripe cherry, woven with a kick of spice from aging in American, French and Hungarian oak barrels.
- To craft this luxury Zinfandel, Angels gave Derek access to the family-owned, organically farmed Unti Vineyard in the heart of Sonoma’s coveted Dry Creek Valley. For top-shelf Sonoma Zinfandel, look no further!
- Derek makes this decadent single-vineyard Zinfandel exclusively for you, and for supporting him from start to finish, you get it for an unbeatable $22 savings!
Best before
No need to age this wine as it's meant to be enjoyed in its youth, though the oak-aging gives it just enough structure to reward short-term [3-5 years] cellaring. I'll be holding onto a few bottles for much longer, i.e. 10+ years to allow complex aromas and flavors to develop over time.
Serving advice
Make sure you serve this wine at cellar [65ºF] temperature rather than room temperatures to help it show its best.
