About the wine
This 100% organically farmed single-vineyard Zinfandel is your jam
- Flush with flavors like blackberry pie, ripe black cherries and chocolate, this debut from Derek is lush and plush, yet also young and fresh – ideal for summer BBQ parties and sunsets around a firepit.
- Your funding helped Derek harvest 100% California Certified Organic Farmers (CCOF) Zinfandel from a mountain top on the southern edge of Sonoma's Moon Mountain District, where shallow soils limit production and force the vines to produce intensely-flavored grapes.
- A comparable Zinfandel goes for more than twice your Angel price. Stock up on the wine Derek calls “pure goodness” and enjoy it all summer long and beyond.
Best before
This wine is delicious now and will age well for at least 5 to 10 years.
