Lodi, with its classic Mediterranean climate and well-drained soils has been an ideal growing region for world class Zinfandels for over a century. The vineyards selected for this Old Vine Zinfandel are a mixture of very sandy and sandy loam, ideal for intense flavored grapes. Winemaking Our grapes are hand-harvested and delivered to the winery in small lots. These small lots of perfectly ripened fruit are gently crushed and allowed to cold soak for a day or two before starting fermentation. After pressing and secondary fermentation is completed, the wine is transferred to small oak barrels and aged for 12 months to finish malolactic fermentation. Aging takes place in our underground caverns that were hand-blasted by local miners, many whose families came for gold in the 1800’s. These caverns remain a natural 60 degrees Fahrenheit year-round to ensure a fuller, richer, finer wine of true varietal character.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Quintessential","offers":[{"title":"750mL \/ 6 \/ 2021","offer_id":45627228520644,"sku":"IVZNR6-21","price":240.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0594\/3538\/5028\/files\/ironstone-vineyards-zinfandel-old-vine-reserve-lodi-750ml-6-2021-758.webp?v=1766696066","url":"https:\/\/www.grandwinecellar.com\/products\/ironstone-vineyards-zinfandel-old-vine-reserve-lodi","provider":"Grand Wine Cellar","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
