Storybook Mountain Vineyards

Napa Estate Eastern Exposure Zinfandel

    • Description :

      This special barrel selection is presented to showcase just how elegant, fragrant, and balanced Napa hillside Zinfandels can be. Occupying a mountainside at the head of the Napa Valley, Zinfandels were first planted here in 1883. It is a grape unusually well adapted to the red clay loam soils, eastern exposures, and microclimate of Storybook's hillside estate. The vines are hand tended, from pruning through picking. Storybook is a CCOF-certified organic grower.
      Cooperage: 14 months in French and American oak.
