Loaded with dried cherry, jammy plum and spicy raspberry flavors, this just-released Zinfandel from the Quaglia family’s seventy-five year-old
vineyard in St. Helena is intense and complex.
Pepper and spice and everything nice! Raisiny, this Mendocino County Zinfandel is a juicy mouthful of raspberry, black cherry and apricot flavors spiced with cracked peppercorns and dried red chilies.
From head-trained, dry-farmed vines in Dry Creek Valley, this old-vine Zinfandel has intense deep blackberry aromas and an extraordinary concentration of ripe flavors accented with aromatic spice and toasty oak. The dark fruit flavors are persistent, enveloped in a velvety texture.
Eighty year old vines are the genesis for this very expressive single-vineyard bottling that has quickly become one of our most sought-after Zinfandel's.
The 2005 Quaglia is a briary and brambly Zinfandel, similar in style to the spicy, peppery Howell Mountain Zins, but distinctively minty, with eucalyptus and licorice in the forefront, black raspberry in the middle and sweet oak in the finish.
There’s an elegance about this wine not found in many Zinfandels, which are often briary and tend to be very fruit forward. This one has great balance and is already very easy to drink.
This spectacular Zin is an eye-opener. Grown in the fertile Lodi area where Zinfandel has a long history, this is vibrant and delicious, with ripe blueberry and sweet spice. Easy to drink, this one’s already a winner.
From 80-year-old vines in Russian River Valley, this single-vineyard Zin expresses loads of varietal fruit with ripe raspberry, dried plum and cherry cola flavors leading to an expansive and lingeringly spicy finish.
