Clay Creek Vineyards Old Vine Zinfandel 2023 (California)
"Sweetly fruited with spicy nuances, the fragrant bouquet showcases dark plum, wild strawberry, dried herb, cured meat, and toasted almond characters. It's succulent and plump in the mouth, delivering a plush texture backed by layers of silky tannins, making it velvety and fabulously appealing. At its best: now to 2031" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit
Deep ruby with purple tones. Blackberry bramble, dark raspberry, toasted oak, hint of rose. Blackberry and dark plum with lingering oak nuance, medium body, supple tannins and balanced acidity on the finish.
From our family to yours - we happily share our favorite delectable wines made with grapes from some of California’s finest vineyards, and bottled at our family’s sustainable winery. Bust out your favorite wine glass and pour yourself a moment of pure California joy.
A stable and favorable growing season from budbreak through harvest allowed for excellent color and flavor development. Cool evening air provided relief from daytime heat, helping the fruit retain brightness and balance.
The grapes were fermented entirely in stainless steel to preserve fresh fruit expression and natural varietal character. No oak was used at any stage, allowing the wine’s bright blackberry and plum notes to remain pure and unmasked. Following fermentation, the wine completed full malolactic conversion, contributing a smooth texture and balanced finish.
