title: Gary Farrell 2013 Grist Vineyard Zinfandel (Dry Creek Valley)
description: Intensely dense and feral, this wine opens with a thicket of tart cherry and strawberry, followed by leathery black pepper and lavender. Medium in body and acidity, it works for the table, finding balance as it goes, before a rich taste of toffee finishes things off.
variety: Zinfandel
designation: Grist Vineyard
