Zinfandel

On the nose spicy undertones enhance the briary raspberry and blackberry perfumes characteristic of the Seghesio Zinfandel. On the palate it is full-bodied, with lush fruit character interwoven with fine, integrated tannins and a long, smooth finish.

A deep and powerful Californian Zinfandel, full of bright red fruit. The core of this blend comes from the Cortina Vineyard planted in 1972 in Dry Creek Valley. This site is named after the gravelly loam soils prevalent up and down Dry Creek Valley.

Deeply perfumed aromas of dark berries and old vine Zinfandel’s woody spiciness. Vibrant acidity and balanced tannins thanks to low yields in the vineyard. Long, persistent finish.

The San Lorenzo vineyard was purchased by the Seghesios in 1896. The blend for `The Pearl` is a result of the century old field blend of 69% Zinfandel, 15% Petite Sirah, 5% Carignan and 10% mixed reds that include Grand Noir, Alicante, Negrette and Mataro. The nose has layered complexity with black plums, raspberries and cigar box aromas.
