Haywood Winery Morning Sun Zinfandel 2012
About the wine
Cliffside-grown Zinfandel with fired-up flavor
- Angel funding gave Peter the chance to put extra TLC into this estate wine from Los Chamizal - a steep, cliffside vineyard in Sonoma County - and he's thanking you with a rich Zinfandel that's lush and silky from start to end.
- Layered with rich fruits from 7 different vineyard sections and carefully blended to bring out Zin's peppery tendencies, this Sonoma-grown red has a hint of jam and a smoooooooth finish.
- This spicy, powerful Reserve is a great match for whatever delicious roasted goodies emerge from a campsite firepit.

Wine profile
Meet the winemaker - Peter Haywood
- Peter made such good wine a big corporation came to buy his brand name. They paid big bucks to use his name but they never cared about the talented winemaker that was behind the excellent wine.
- While the brand got sold from one corporation to the next, Peter went on growing great grapes and making good wine under different names.
- If you care more about the winemaker than about the brand name, buy a bottle of Peter's wine.
