2022 Zinfandel
Rutherford
I’d like to introduce you to the 2022 vintage of the grape that inspires me - the wine that has defined and sustained Tres Sabores for 24 vintages now: Zinfandel! With ravishing aromas and flavors, its brambleberry, pepper, sublime balance and ‘never really tasted a Zinfandel quite like this’ character craves the company of the table. This PNV selection is not only a composition of the best lots in our cellar, but a celebration of the vineyard’s 50th year! Indeed, as planted on our west-Rutherford alluvial fan, minimally cultivated, organically certified and dry-farmed ranch, this heritage varietal shines with verve, savory elegance and a certain ‘Jazz Club’ vibe.
Winemaker, Tres Sabores
I married a winemaker. Then I married another winemaker. They both make great wine and I've learned a great deal through a 30-year-long process of love and osmosis (and personal gumption, I guess!)
I was encouraged to start making wine in 2001 - "Don't you think it's about time that you start making the wine (from your front yard)?", he said.
