About the wine
Rich, oak-aged Reserve Zinfandel from your reigning Winemaker of the Year
- Look out world — this is a smooth and rich Reserve Zinfandel made with Karen’s signature touch. Months of oak aging and Karen’s expertise brings out the best in this fruit — she's won back-to-back Gold medals to prove it!
- Your funding gives Karen priority access to vineyards managed by Lodi’s top growers. After harvest, she lets this dark, fruit-forward red take a long, lavish nap in oak (almost two years!) to bring you robust, smooth perfection.
- With over 35,000 followers and 235,000 reviews for her wines, to say Karen is beloved by your community is an understatement. Toast your Winemaker of the Year with this Reserve Zinfandel worthy of the crown.
Best before
Give this wine a little time to take on some bottle age, if possible. It's a Reserve wine, so your patience will be rewarded!
Serving advice
I know that it's hard to be patient with wine. If you don't plan on waiting, aeration is recommended! Use your favorite decanter or aerator to open up this young wine.
Food match
So many choices! Zinfandel braised short ribs, baby back ribs with your favorite sweet or spicy sauce, grilled Lockeford sausage (a local speciality), gumbo with dark roux and andouille sausage. Try to save a bottle for your Thanksgiving turkey!
