Edmeades Perli Vineyard Zinfandel

July 15th, 2010


The Perli Vineyard Zin is composed with multiple varieties, creating a Zin that leans more toward a Claret in style. Bramble berries and spice are the predominant aromas, but you can also find hints of toffee, anise, fresh flowers, chocolate and stone fruits. The flavors are soft and supple, with loads of richness on the finish. It drinks like a wild berry cream soda – too easy to drink. A great wine for a person who does not like red wine, but complex enough for the most sophisticated wine geek.

Bottling 2008 Cabernet Franc – May 14, 2010

May 20th, 2010


The bottles are coming off the labeller and being checked by Paula and Pat for any problems. Behind the filler you can vaguely see our Assistant Winemaker Korol waving (she runs the line). Dumping glass is Darren, stacking with the use of a Vac-U-Hoist is Regan and finally, wrapping the pallets and forklifting is JC. All are wearing lovely and stylish hair nets!

Our 2008 Cabernet Franc is yummy and will be coming to stores near you in Fall 2010.
