Terra d'Oro

2006 Amador County Zinfandel

SHR Blend 80% zinfandel, 13% petite sirah, 7% barbera

Deep, rich, concentrated color.  A smoky fullness on the aroma, leads to a big mouthful of wine.  Lush, full of fruit.  Lots of tannin, but very well balanced.  Right now, this wants a rich meat dish.  BBQ or steak or pasta with a very rich sauce like rabbit or pork.  $29.00

Deaver Vineyard
100-year-old vines

Sparkling, clear light garnet color.  Fresh raspberry aromas lead to a clean, spicy palate with a light elegant taste.  The 15% plus alcohol is not even apparent on the palate, because of the balance of fruit and acid.  A simply elegant, easy to drink wine.  $29.00.
