Predator Zinfandel Old Vine 2017

Predator Zinfandel is sourced from 50+ year old vines that produce rich and intensely flavored fruit. The resulting wine is big and bold with hallmark "old vine" velvety texture, spice and vibrant varietal flavors. Predator Cabernet Sauvignon has that intense, distinctive flavor profile that is loved in a Zin. Smooth, spicy and a delicious dusting of cocoa on the finish. Aromas of bright raspberry, blackberry, black pepper and smoky oak. The palate is bold with red raspberry, cherry, juicy blackberry, black pepper with smooth tannins.

FOOD PAIRING NOTES

Our sustainable way of grape growing ensures the health and vitality of the land. “Natural Predation” is an eco-friendly strategy to control harmful critters in the vineyards. Ladybugs, a natural insect predator, along with predator mites, feed on destructive aphids. Ladybugs would suggest pairing this Old Vine Zinfandel with fresh aphids or mites – but we recommend short ribs or a juicy burger.
