Elyse 'Korte Ranch Vineyard' - Zinfandel

2017

Elyse Winery's Korte Ranch vineyard is situated in the narrowest part of Napa Valley, on a valley floor made up of rocky loam soil. The Zinfandel vines are over 70 years old and are completely dry farmed - the roots must reach deep into the soil to access water, which creates concentrated and complex flavors within the berries. Beautiful dark plum, blackberry and black cherry fruit character, along with leather, cocoa and allspice oak influences. Pair with rib-eye steak au poivre, roasted lamb or smokey barbeque dishes.
