About the wine
This single-vineyard Russian River Valley Zinfandel is a rare find
Megan and Ryan’s cool-climate Zinfandel runneth over with concentrated flavors like dark brambly berries, ripe red cherry and juicy black plum with a smidge of savory spice.
If you thought Russian River Valley was only famous for Pinot and Chardonnay, think again. It’s also home to some of Sonoma’s oldest Zinfandel at Alegría Vineyard, planted in 1890. With your support, the Glaabs got their hands on some to make this intensely flavorful wine.
Old vines produce fewer grapes, which means this Zinfandel is only available in limited quantities. Don’t sit on this – get a few bottles of this old-vine gem and enjoy a taste of Wine Country history.
Best before
This wine should age beautifully for 5 years or more but is ready to drink.
Serving advice
It will benefit from decanting to encourage the aromatics to emerge.
Food match
BBQ and pizza.

Wine profile
Meet the winemaker - Megan & Ryan Glaab
- Ryan and Megan aren’t your typical Wine Country Cabernet duo. They’re after the best-kept secrets in the Valley — seeking old heritage vineyards with rare, underrated Italian grapes like Vermentino and Aglianico. A bit rebellious? Maybe. Absolutely worth it? Definitely.
- And they have the expertise to do it with combined experience at Torbreck, Sine Qua Non, Marcassin, Pax, Peay and their own brand, RYME Cellars. They’ve dreamed of expanding with another brand, aptly named Verse, to take on even more opportunities to work with unique fruit from the best growers.
- Thanks to Angel support and the COVID Relief Fund, Megan and Ryan were able to keep their operations going in 2020 and start their next Verse to make the wines they truly love and share their unique vision with the world.
