Meadowcroft Sonoma Zinfandel

$15.00

Varietal Birthplace Year
Zinfandel Sonoma Valley 2008
This wine evolves nicely in the glass, with wonderful dark fruit aromatics and hints of spice, clove, cedar and leather. The palate echoes the nose with notes of pepper, cinnamon and tobacco. The Zinfandel is ripe, with good grip and balance, and delivers pleasing, smooth tannins.
Marionberry, dried cherry, boysenberry, cedar and tobacco.
Early in his career, Tom Meadowcroft worked at wineries in Bordeaux, Washington and Napa. Later, as a vineyard manager, he implemented environmentally responsible vineyard practices at dozens of top wineries in Napa and Sonoma. Today, his namesake wines are made from tiny lots of organically or sustainably grown grapes that he purchases from the finest growers. At these vineyards, Meadowcroft selects specific vineyard rows for his wines, which the grower maintains to Meadowcroft's specifications. The hallmark "honeybee" on the label symbolizes hard work, the journey of mastering a discipline and the process of transforming grapes from single vineyards into outstanding wines.
Zinfandel can be high in both tannin and alcohol and calls for rich food with enough fat and protein to bring out its softer side. Grilled meats, especially fatty selections like duck, sausages and pork or beef ribs fit the bill nicely, as do braised stews with lamb, beef or game. Sweet-spicy fare, especially barbecue and savory Asian sauces, will match well with the wine's deep fruit. Take your pick between my Grilled Pesto Marinated Skirt Steak with Blue Cheese Fondue and my Grilled and Sliced Steak Omero. Make sure to have family members or friends around as fondue is meant to be shared with others!
In addition to Zinfandel, Meadowcroft makes Chardonnay and Viognier from Sonoma and a Cabernet Sauvignon from Napa's Mount Veeder.
