Perotti Vineyard. The Perotti Vineyard has provided wonderful fruit worthy of any "mbf." Located on the north end of Dry Creek Vallley, on a bench with an eastern slope, this location ensures great air circulation and exposure, dry skins and ripe fruit. As they say in real estate and winemaking--location, location, location!
Brenda's Winemaking. My Zinfandel was treated to gentle winemaking and oak aging. The 2008 mbf vintage was aged in 100% French oak (40% new) barrels for 22 months.

Wine Profile
Tasting Notes
Deep red in color, this is a robust, fruit-forward wine with notes of anise and pepper. The wine has a nice balance of flavors and medium mouth-feel. The tannins are there, but tamed for an immediately drinkable wine.
