First coined by Dry Creek Vineyard in 1987, the term โOld Vineโ has special meaning to our family winery. Its vineyards remain the most prized and historic of all plantings in the Dry Creek Valley. Although there is no legal definition, we define an old vine vineyard as having vines that average more than 50 years in age. For this bottling of our Old Vine Zinfandel, the vines average more than 100 years in age! This vintage presents alluring aromatics of boysenberry, raspberry and blackberry with notes of leather, cardamom, toasty cedar and cocoa. On the palate, layers of black cherry and plum come forward with nuances of white and black pepper, nutmeg and mocha. The wine is complex, with bright acidity and impeccable balance. The tannins are structured but soft, and lend a round, rich mouthfeel.
