Over the past 28 years, we have made 41 different Lots of Old Vine Red. During this time, we have developed quite a reputation for, amongst other things, a very high level of consistency. There are always subtle changes between Lots but overall, the flavor profile is very similar. Old Vine Red, in general, is a proprietary red wine that is round, smooth, somewhat “Zinfandel-like,” and noted for its balance, approachability, and consistency. It is primarily comprised of Zinfandel, Petite Sirah and Carignane as well as smaller amounts of Cabernet and Syrah. Various Italian varietals round out the blend. Old Vine Red Lot 40 exemplifies a perfect marriage of approachability and complexity. The core of Zinfandel fruit is as apparent and inviting as always, while additions of Cabernet, Syrah, and Italian varietals add noticeably complex aromas and flavors both aromatically and on the palate. Color: Dark ruby purple. Aroma: Ripe blackberries, earthy spice, black pepper, cassis, and subtle hints of oak. Palate: Dense, lush, round, and mouth filling with thick fruit flavors. Aging: Best within 1-3 years.
