Mission Codename No shrinking violet
Juicy, dark and packed with flavor, today’s 2009 Mayo Family Winery Barnstormer Zinfandel is a must-have for any fan of fantastic Zinfandel.
A true Zinfandel-lover’s wine, today’s offering comes to you with our heartiest recommendation. While the Russian River Valley is known for producing outstanding Pinot and Chardonnay, the valley does possess a handful of ‘sweet spots’ for Zinfandel. Today’s wine was crafted from grapes from small, selected lots in the RRV - to make one heck of a Zin.
This wine is drinking beautifully now, and we’d suggest that you enjoy some now - but hold on to a few bottles for the next couple of years.
Please be sure to decant this wine for maximum enjoyment. 30 minutes should do the trick, rendering the wine softer and more juicy than on opening.
