Old Vine Zinfandel 2023

Del Barba Vineyard Zinfandel
Contra Costa County, CA

Old vines, fresh energy. From sandy, own-rooted vines first planted in the 1880s, this is a brighter, more lifted take on Zin.

Black raspberry, cherry cola, and blood orange lead, with fennel spice and a subtle saline edge. Medium-bodied, with lively acidity and soft tannins.

Fermented gently, aged in neutral oak, unfined and unfiltered — nothing extra, just the vineyard.

Not jammy. Precise, food-friendly, and quietly complex.
