Zin is In!


It was a big weekend! Saturday we got a call at 5:30am that our Barbera was at perfect brix and pickers were on the scene at 7:00. Our 2600lbs of Barbera was juicy-sweet with brix at 25, ph perfect, and incredible flavor. Barbera is one of the signature varietals for Amador County, and the fruit is the reason why. Barbera is very happy at this elevation!

Then on Sunday, Zin was in! Brix was at 24, and flavors were excellent. Zinfandels of our area show classic spicy, peppery, Sierra Foothill flavors. Our 3000lbs will make approximately 3 barrels of Zinlicious wine.
