Typical of Dry Creek style. Lean, good acid for Zin, minimal fruit. Great restraint and subtlety.

Earthiness over fruit with fuller than usual body. A bit of smoky leather in the finish.

Enjoyed this so much with the hubby that I forgot to get a photo of the wine in my glass🍷
Deep flavor, pairs well with pasta ala vodka!

Peterson wines are authentic, vineyard-driven, and robust in style. This wine is reflective of the region and vintage with chewy, earthy tannins. Winemaker Jamie Peterson knows his way around the vineyard and in the cellar shows restraint and wisdom. This wine is balanced and will age beautifully as with all Peterson wines.

Light bodied, tart, acidic highly tannic and not much fruit- fine inexpensive pizza wine or for the ditch
