Older vines make bolder Zins. The main sources of this Zinfandel, the Bruella and Fathom Vineyards, are home to vines over forty years old. These vines produce intense, robust Zinfandel with full-tilt flavors. Brick red and deep purple in the glass, a bit of sweetness with a structured palate. Fruity at first, vanilla cream mid, and cacao chocolate with a bit of oak to finish. Delicious, bright, and fruit forward with many deep fruit characteristics standing out such as plum, cherry, and boysenberry. Boneshaker's full body is a great pairing for cioppino, lasagna, or pizza.

More of a generic red than a Zinfandel, easygoing, with perky cherry and spice flavors. Drink now through 2023. 13,000 cases made.

Meaty, peppery aromas and spicy smoky flavors show a pretty heavy oak influence in this full-bodied and moderately tannic wine.
