Back Door Old Vines Zinfandel 2015
About the wine
Secret stash of premium Lodi Zinfandel at a ridiculous price
- You have been crying out for more Californian wines, so when we got a tip-off about an undercover parcel of delicious old-vine Zinfandel made by a rock star winemaker, it was an opportunity too good to miss.
- It’s top secret, but one of Lodi’s poshest wineries needs to clear some space for a new vintage. They have to keep it hush-hush so it doesn’t get out they’re selling their best kit off to Angels at a knockdown price.
- Lush brambly aromas, the boysenberry, anise and toasted marshmallow. Then an influx of sun-soaked Californian fruit hits the back of your mouth. Silky tannins, a twist of pepper and a charred smoky edge give it a lovely lingering finish. Lush.
