Telling Bird 2014 Zinfandel Sonoma County, California

Description

Vineyards have a unique ecology that ebbs and flows in vibrancy along with the seasons. The whole ecosystem grows together, and every player has a special role to help the vines grow. Bees pollinate the flowers, humans tend the vines, and the birds help us keep an eye on pests. The Telling Bird Zinfandel is named for the owls and hawks and songbirds that help us farm the land. They eat bugs that would otherwise destroy the fragile vines. Thankfully these Zinfandel grapes were able to reach peak maturity. The wine has bold spice and a fruity intensity. Our experts have been loving it with steaks and barbecue. Judges enjoy this wine too! It took home Silver Medals at the 2018 Press Democrat North Coast Wine Challenge and the 2018 Critics Challenge!
