The 2014 vintage exhibits classic Old Vine character – a big ripe chewy Zinfandel with rich raspberry and spicy blackberry flavors, finishing with a delicious mouthcoating texture. The wine is loaded with flavor that should develop nicely over the next 3-5 years, but is hard to resist it in its exuberant youth.
Vineyard Notes
The 2014 Mohr-Fry Ranch Zinfandel comes from a blend of two old own-rooted Zinfandel vineyards planted in 1901 and 1944 on Mohr- Fry Ranch in the heart of the Lodi Appellation. These head-pruned own-rooted vineyards are situated in the sandy soils just southwest of the city of Lodi, and benefit from the distinctive delta breezes that cool the appellation in the late afternoon and early evening creating an ideal climate for high-quality Zinfandel.
