"Our 2014 Zinfandel Port exhibits a complex nose of cherry cordial, black fruits interlaced with candied orange zest and anise. Ripe blackberry, black cherry and mocha flavors are framed by nutmeg and ends with a rich sweet finish. To preserve the depth of character and intensity of flavors, this wine was neither fined nor filtered." - Jeff Stewart, Winemaker

Vineyard & Vintage Character
Our 2014 Russian River Valley Port is crafted from old-vine, low-yielding, dry farmed Russian River Valley Zinfandel vineyards. Zinfandel grown in the Russian River Valley is distinctive due to a cool maritime influence. Cool, fog-laden nights and warm days result in wines that have bright, natural acidity and vibrant fruit aromas. These 100 year old vineyards, planted on low-fertility soils are ideal to produce Zinfandel based dessert style wines of exceptional density and purity.
