Tasting notes
The 2003 Zinfandel Iron Hill Vineyard (98 cases from a steep hillside parcel) reveals a saturated ruby/purple color as well as impressive levels of rich, briery, concentrated, sweet fruit (raspberries, cherries, blueberries), plenty of pepper, a distinctive, earthy terroir component, and a spicy, full-bodied finish with tart acidity providing uplift. It is a classic, high octane, gorgeous Zinfandel to drink over the next 5-6 years. Tel. (510) 749-9463

(16% alcohol) Bright, dark ruby-red. Blackberry, licorice, orange peel, spice cake and herbs on the nose, with a whiff of slightly dull oak. Then juicy and intense in the mouth if a bit youthfully aggressive, with black fruit and pepper flavors. Fairly powerful on the back end, with some drying tannins.
