| WINE NOTES |
This old vine Zinfandel released by GiaDomella comes from an estate vineyard located along the Russian River owned by the E. Passalacqua family under the guidance of winemaker Nick Goldschmidt. The land where this historic vineyard is situated has been in our family for nearly a century and has been owned in succession by our great-grandparents, grandparents and parents. Grape growing and winemaking have always been a piece of our family heritage. GiaDomella is a tribute to this heritage and is named after Gianna, Dominic, and Marcella Passalacqua, the 5th generation of our winemaking family.
100% of the grapes are sourced directly from the 50 acre estate vineyard, with the multiple soil types and microclimates lending themselves to this gloriously complex and seamless wine.
A lush, full-bodied wine with intense notes of wild blackberries, raspberries and plums. Rich and generous, this wine is perfect for a casual family dinner or could just as easily be the bottle of choice for elegant dining with friends. |
