Lovely dark jammy nose that is immediately appealing. Gets more intriguing the more I learn. 100% Zinfandel, 17 months in new French Oak, Natural yeasts, only 640 cases produced. Rich body with rich fruits and strong pepper spice. Like very much.

Wow. What a wine. 15 yrs old. Still with a lot of fruit and structure. Anniversary wine. Thanks Matthew and Chateau Potelle for making VGS happen for us.
