Ken and Derek Dry Creek Valley Sonoma County Zinfandel 2014
About the wine
Crowd-pleazin' collaboration between 2 top winemakers
- Intense without being forceful, this is Zin at its fanciest so you get all the strong flavors but with a sort of freshness that makes the wine incredibly drinkable.
- Ken & Derek's collaboration went so well last vintage that they set out to make another Zin together, this time from Sonoma Valley. It's got a touch more oak and structure but also more fruit and freshness than last vintage.
- Quintessential BBQ wine, especially if you've got a lot of herbs and spices on your grilled meats.
Best before
Crowdpleazin Zin is approachable upon release, improves with decanting, and ages well fro up to 5 years.
Serving advice
Open it early and often! And then open another!
Food match
This wine pairs really well with BBQ and pizza...local foods we can all enjoy!

Wine profile
Meet the winemaker - Ken Deis & Derek Rohlffs
- This is a perfect example of the interaction and camaraderie at your customer-funded winery in Sonoma. These winemakers were working on two separate zins until they tasted each other's wines and couldn't resist a little blending session.
- Ken Deis and Derek Rohlffs make excellent wines independently and when their powers combine, they are an unstoppable force of nature.
- This is the first time we've had a winemaker collaboration on this scale so let us know how you like it -- should we encourage your winemakers to play together more often?
