title: Dutcher Crossing 2009 Bernier-Sibary Vineyard Zinfandel (Dry Creek Valley)
description: Oak dominates this Zin-based blend, which contains Petite Sirah, Carignane and Mataro (Mourvèdre). The underlying wine is as rich as the very fine 2008, with berry, cherry, currant, leather and spice flavors. But sweet, caramelized oak rules, to the wine's detriment.
variety: Zinfandel
designation: Bernier-Sibary Vineyard
