A true blend of signature Russian River Valley Zinfandel selections, our 2017 O.F.S. Zinfandel opens with a bouquet of aromas of raspberries, black cherry and subtle notes of mushroom. On the palate, youre immediately met with flavors of strawberry tart, while underlying darker fruit and creme brulee linger on the finish. The silky mouthfeel and medium body make this a well-structured yet balanced wine with a lingering finish.
Sourced and hand harvested from Fanucchi, Saitone, BCD, Slusser, Rue, and Boschetti Vineyards, some of Russian River Valleys premier old vine Zinfandel vineyards, the fruit for this delicious wine was chosen for superior quality and variety. In warmer reaches of the valley where old vines persevere, grapes ripen over an extended season to develop wonderfully complex flavors.
Following careful cluster sorting, each pick is fermented separately in both small open-top French oak vats and stainless steel tanks. The wine is gently pressed o and aged in barrels from a variety of forests and cooperages. During the 16 months aging in barrel, each barrel evolves dierently. We select the most complimentary barrels from each vineyard to create our reserve blend - Our Finest Selection.
