Zinfandel / 2022
This 2022 Zinfandel shows a deep garnet-purple hue, opening with an alluring bouquet of cherry compote, ripe raspberry, and baked plum. Layers of exotic spice, rose petals, and forest floor add complexity and intrigue. On the palate, vibrant acidity and firm, chewy tannins provide structure and lift to the rich, spiced berry fruit. The finish is long and savory, leaving lingering notes of earth and spice.

Named for Count Haraszthy’s third son, who proudly championed his father’s role in bringing the beloved Zinfandel grape to Sonoma, this wine is sourced from a historic vineyard northeast of Sonoma. Planted in the early 1880s, the site is defined by its red volcanic soils, scattered boulders, and resilient old vines that lend both character and concentration to the fruit. Harvested on September 15, 2023, the wine was aged for 15 months in 23% new French oak, allowing the vineyard’s distinctive personality to shine through.
