2017 Mt. Brave Mt. Veeder Zinfandel

The 2017 Mt. Brave Zinfandel from our estate vineyard on Mt. Veeder shines with notes of ripe raspberry, cassis, and classic Zinfandel pepper, followed by a hint of espresso. Hand-harvested during the cool morning hours, this wine was fermented in stainless steel and then underwent native malolactic fermentation in barrels to round acidity and softly integrate the vanillin character of French oak. The resulting wine shows great acidity and classic mountain structure.
