| We produce three wines each year from our own vineyards: Rattlesnake
Ridge Zinfandel, Rattlesnake Ridge Petite Sirah and Dawn Hill Ranch Zinfandel. Production is very
limited. 2008 Rattlesnake Ridge Zinfandel is youthful and rich at this early stage, and will mature into a wine of quiet intensity and power emphasizing elegance and complexity. The flavor is deep, full of dark fruit notes of currant and black cherry, together with hints of licorice and tobacco. Aged in 100% French Oak. The young vines seem to make a wine that is approachable young. Sixty cases produced. Release:October 2010. 2008 Rattlesnake Ridge Petite Sirah is inky, complex and voluptuous. True to the variety, this wine is bold and tannic, and it will certainly benefit from some more time in bottle. The warm 2008 summer seemed perfect to develop classic flavors. Release: October 2010. 2007 DHR Zinfandel is medium to full-bodied with concentrated dark cassis and plum. Dawn Hill Ranch produces a lighter style than Rattlesnake Ridge, but the fruit and tannins are well integrated. It has been aged in 100% French Oak. We've held it back to give it longer in barrel. Seventy-five cases produced. Release: October 2010. Join our Pre-release list to be notified of our offering. |
