This wine is a Z List selection.

Thinning of the younger vines in mid-July helped speed ripening, though cool, rainy weather in early September delayed harvest until early October. After natural primary and secondary fermentations, we blind-tasted the three vineyard blocks, choosing the Old Vines and Triangle parcels to make the 2006 Ponzo. The wine aged in air-dried american oak for twelve months before bottling. Fifteen percent new oak adds sweetness and complexity, complementing the natural acidity and fine tannins. This cool climate zinfandel shows the exotic fruit typical of the Russian River region. It will be at its best over the next five to six years. JO (11/07)
