About the wine
Crowd-pleazin' collaboration between 2 top winemakers
- Intense without being forceful, this is Zin at its fanciest – you get all the strong flavors with a sort of freshness that makes the wine incredibly drinkable.
- Ken & Derek's latest Zin collaboration comes from three unique Dry Creek and Sonoma County vineyards. It's got a touch more structure but also more plum fruit than last year's vintage.
- Quintessential BBQ wine, especially if you've got a lot of herbs and spices on your grilled meats.
Best before
This wine is drinkable now but could be aged for 3-5 years or more.
Serving advice
A young red wine should be allowed to breathe prior to drinking. Decanting would be best.
Food match
Red meats, grilled chicken, hearty dishes and spice foods.
Contains sulphites
Always check the label

Wine profile
Meet the winemaker - Ken Deis & Derek Rohlffs
- This is a perfect example of the interaction and camaraderie at your customer-funded winery in Sonoma. These winemakers were working on two separate zins until they tasted each other's wines and couldn't resist a little blending session.
- Ken Deis and Derek Rohlffs make excellent wines independently and when their powers combine, they are an unstoppable force of nature.
- This is the first time we've had a winemaker collaboration on this scale so let us know how you like it -- should we encourage your winemakers to play together more often?
