2016 Zinfandel, Los Chamizal Vineyard

This block #3 is my favorite block. It has amplified Zinfandel flavor and is incredibly well balanced. It’s why Zinfandel is my favorite wine.

Description

We’ve been making wine from Peter Haywood’s Los Chamizal Vineyard since 1978. From Chardonnay to Cabernet to Zinfandel, they are always delicious. The vineyard is in a small horseshoe canyon shaped valley. The Zin is planted in blocks at various locations; each has a unique terroir. We pick and ferment the Zinfandel by vineyard block as they are very different from one another in character and taste. This block #3 is my favorite block. It has amplified Zinfandel flavor and is incredibly well balanced. It’s why Zinfandel is my favorite wine.
