About the wine
Make a mad dash for this California Zinfandel
- You'll want to keep this Zinfandel in your company for a long while. Silky-smooth dark fruit and spices make it so warm and inviting.
- It's a great introduction to California's historic vineyards in Contra Costa – a quiet old-vine Zinfandel paradise between two deltas, where it thrives in the region's famed sandy soils.
- Michael and Anne call this a "bistro wine," and we're stealing that from now on. "The perfect wine to sip and savor either as an aperitif or as a complement to a meal!"
Best before
Perfect for drinking immediately, but able to be aged for up to five years and beyond.
Serving advice
It will benefit from an hour's exposure to air. Ideally, it should be decanted and consumed within a few hours afterwards.
Food match
Ideal with hamburgers, grilled meats, pastas and savory sauces.
Contains sulphites
Wine profile
Meet the winemaker - Michael & Anne Dashe
-
Michael and Anne Dashe have worked with many top wineries — Ridge Vineyards, Far Niente, Chappellet, Château Lafite-Rothschild, Château La Dominique — but have developed style all their own. Elegant, balanced wines made with minimal additives, natural yeasts, and grapes from small family farms are their signature!
-
In their urban winery on Spirits Alley (an old Naval Airbase in Alameda, CA), Michael and Anne are using non-industrial winemaking techniques that allow them to highlight the fruit and emphasize the wine’s balance — crafting California Zinfandels in a unique style.
- Although the Dashes have both worked at many wineries famous for Cabernet Sauvignon, their reputation really began with world-class Dry Creek Zinfandel. “Angels, we’re ready to show you that a well-made Zinfandel can be an absolute picture of sophistication and beauty: visually, aromatically, texturally, and flavorfully,” Mike says.
