Inviting notes of black cherry, red plum, and star thistle lead to a juicy, luscious, and vibrant mid-palate of dried black fig, sage, and homemade vanilla cookies. Layers of black and red fruit flood the palate of this juicy, age-worthy, richly structured Zinfandel.
Pair with braised red meat and roasted wild mushrooms.
Todd Brothers Ranch was planted in 1958 in the hills above Geyserville. Thick, head-trained vines wind up a steep slope of shallow, red volcanic soil that limits yields and increases concentration in the small berries that these vines struggle to produce. The refined intensity and opulent structure are hallmarks of this extraordinary vineyard, farmed today by third- and fourth-generation Todd family members.
