Zinfandel Wine Gifts
in 2021
You may be familiar with “White Zinfandel,” a sweet style of pink wine made from Zinfandel grapes. The “other” Zinfandel (without the White in its name) is a dry red wine made from the same grapes. Dry is the opposite of sweet in wine-speak. Zinfandel is a favorite among red wine lovers because of its typical bold flavors of cherry, black pepper, sometimes jam, usually spice, and a tobacco-like smokiness. These Zinfandel gifts will scratch the itch for your favorite Zin fanatic.

About the Wine
Rock Wall 2016 Zinfandel
California Zinfandel aficionados have long revered bottlings from the legendary Monte Rosso Vineyard in the Sonoma Valley AVA. This prestigious vineyard is sought after by many, but only a lucky few have access to the stellar Old Vine Zinfandel that is grown here. Rock Wall Wine Co.' block in the Monte Rosso Vineyard has 116-year-old vines that yield some fantastic wines. The 2016 Reserve Zinfandel is rich, round and ripe with aromas and flavors of briary raspberry, honeycomb, cacao, and strawberry, all wrapped around a peppery, exotic core of dark chocolate and brambly blackberry. This wine will age beautifully for years to come.
Thacher Winery 2016 Zinfandel Normal Deviation
The Thacher 2016 'Normal Deviation' is a blend of 77% Zinfandel and 23% Petite Sirah from the family's home vineyard, Kentucky Ranch, on Paso Robles' famed Westside. On the nose, one can immediately sense the sea salt, blueberries, and dark chocolate notes. The Petite Sirah lends a unique hoisin tang. The palate is more red-fruited, with distinctive flavors of fresh strawberries covered in balsamic, sea salt and crushed peppercorn. The tannins are beautifully polished and rounded, that while friendly, also show incredible weight. Enjoy!
