770 Miles Zinfandel 2024
770 Miles Zinfandel is a bold, fruit-forward red from California , showcasing the variety's hallmark richness, spice, and vibrancy. Crafted to highlight the intensity of sun-ripened fruit balanced by freshness and supple tannins, this is a modern yet authentic interpretation of one of California's most iconic grapes. Why You'll Love It The 770 label represents a contemporary approach to classic Californian winemaking: full of character, fruit-forward, and genuinely approachable. Fruit is sourced from premium vineyard sites where warm days and cool nights ensure optimal ripeness and flavour concentration, creating a wine that delivers real pleasure at an everyday price. This is California Zinfandel at its most accessible and expressive. Vineyard and Production Grapes are harvested at peak maturity to capture the variety's natural intensity and sweet spice. Fermentation takes place in stainless steel to preserve fruit purity, followed by gentle oak ageing to soften the tannins and enhance complexity. Careful blending ensures balance between ripe berry fruit, spice, and structure throughout. Tasting Notes Deep ruby red in the glass, 770 Miles Zinfandel opens with layers of ripe blackberry, plum, and raspberry jam, lifted by hints of black pepper, vanilla, and mocha. The palate is lush and full-bodied with juicy dark fruit, smooth tannins, and a touch of sweet spice on the long, rounded finish. Perfect Pairings A natural match for barbecued ribs, spicy sausages, grilled vegetables, hearty pasta dishes, burgers, and pizza. Also excellent alongside American-style BBQ and smoky, spiced meats. The Blend 100% Zinfandel.
