2005 Santino Bio Zinfandel, Sierra Foothills

2005 Santino Bio Zinfandel, Sierra FoothillsIn a setting amidst the pastoral beauty of California’s Shenandoah Valley, Santino Winery stands as a tribute to excellence in winemaking.  Since 1979, Santino has been producing wines from the soil of Amador County.

Winemaker’s Notes

The grapes are sourced from Sustainably farmed Vineyards in Lodi and the Sierra Foothills. The wine is aged mostly in tank with 10% in older oak cooperage. The wine has a light body and excellent fruit aromas and flavors. Best consumed now, serve with grilled meats, light red sauce pasta or turkey.

Vintage

The growing season of 2005 started out with a normal spring but the record winter and spring rainfall gave plenty of early growth.  A hot early summer continued the growth and berry development and a large crop was the result.   The weather remained dry throughout the harvest, resulting in perfect fruit condition.
