Boneshaker Zinfandel 2019

Lodi, California Boneshaker Zinfandel is a tasty red wine gem from the Lodi wine region of central California made by Hahn Family Wines. This Old Vine Zinfandel is sourced from two historical vineyards – Bruella Vineyard and Fathom Ranch – both located in the Mokelumne River AVA, a sub-appellation of the Lodi AVA that is home to more Old Vine Zinfandel vineyards than any region in the U.S. The heritage, head-trained Zinfandel vines in these low-yielding vineyards range from 60 to more than 100 years old, with roots that reach deep into well-drained, sandy loam soils. With a Mediterranean climate featuring warm, sunny days and evenings cooled by breezes off the Sacramento River Delta, the Lodi AVA has long been recognized as one of the finest AVAs for growing intensely flavored Zinfandel. Certified sustainable under the highly respected Lodi Rules for Sustainable Farming program, these vineyards promote biodiversity, soil and water health, as well as community and employee well-being. Boneshaker Zinfandel is a vibrant ruby red in color, opening with aromas of dark cherry, blackberry, subtle notes of spice and a hint of leather. On the palate, perfectly ripe red berry and fruit flavors are accompanied by a balanced structure with firm ripe tannins and a touch of warm spices on a gentle toasty finish. Boneshaker Zinfandel is the perfect summer barbecue wine and will also pair nicely with your Thanksgiving turkey! Enjoy with roast chicken, BBQ ribs, grilled vegetables and cheeses.
