Nickel & Nickel 2007 Ponzo Vineyard Zinfandel, Russian River Valley

A blockbuster new Zinfandel from Nickel & Nickel! Very limited.

Located in Sonoma’s Russian River Valley, Ponzo Vineyard grows Zinfandel from vines planted around 1920, near the onset of Prohibition.  The climate is fairly cool and mild due to the coastal influences, morning fog, and breezy conditions that last throughout the summer.  Nickel & Nickel’s 11-acre block is planted on flat, sandy loam soil and is dry farmed, producing deeply concentrated fruit.
