Sonoma is one of California's most important wine counties, lying on the north coast above San Francisco. In recent years it has been sub divided and sub divided again into AVAs displaying differing growing conditions.
Tasting notes: Every year, Seghesio bring in approximately 35 lots of Zinfandel averaging 25-30 years in age. Each of these lots is produced under the careful eye of winemaker, Ted Seghesio. The best of these lots are selected to make Sonoma Zinfandel. A small amount of Petite Sirah is added to the wine for added complexity. The result is a tantalising black raspberry and classic briary flavoured wine with a balance of components for which Seghesio wines are known.

Tasting notes: The 2007 Zinfandel Old Vine (a selection from the oldest vineyards) reveals a dense ruby/purple-tinged color as well as a floral, blueberry and black raspberry-scented nose, a rich, full-bodied mouthfeel, and serious tannin in the background. Textured, rich, and long with considerable upside, it can be drunk now or cellared for a decade. 90+/100pts Robert Parker
