Seghesio Cortina Zinfandel 20062007 Dry Creek Valley
The Seghesio family have been making their superb range of Zinfandels since they first bought land in 1895. Cortina comes from some of the oldest head-pruned vineyards in the dry creek valley. It is one of their cooler sites and produces a sleeker wine with intense raspberry and white pepper flavours, a lean, muscular structure and a complexity not found in many Zinfandels. This is one of the finest Zins around and will cellar well for 6-8 years.
