2018 Sidebar Old Vine Zinfandel Mokelumne River "From Mokelumne River in Lodi and made of 100% Zinfandel, the barrel sample of 2018 Zinfandel has a nose of spiced black cherry, blueberry jam and potpourri with herbal and earth touches and peachy undertones. Medium to full-bodied, it offers great intensity of blue fruits in the mouth, with grainy framing tannins and great juicy acidity, finishing long with fruity and spicy layers." --Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 92-94 Points!!! Winery Notes:
"David Ramey & Ramey Wine Cellars boutique companion project, sidebar cellars does not make much wine, but we are extremely proud of what we do produce. We focus on diverse grape varieties. Brightness and simplicity are key, tailored by a supple texture. vintage notes: The 2018 season was exemplary. Spring was drier than in 2017 and after two years of poor set, consistently mild weather led to good berry set. Higher cluster counts than the low yielding years of 2015-2017 coupled with cooler late summer temperatures brought longer hangtimes, with harvest dates about two weeks later than the previous vintage.winemaking: Native yeast, three-week fermentation and maceration with 25% whole clusters. Pressed and barreled down before native malolactic fermentation." Release Price: $28LFW Price: Only $19.99!! | | |
