Gagnon Kennedy 2022 Zinfandel

Monte Rosso Vineyard Moon Mountain District Sonoma
Shy at first, this wine opens up with elevated notes of spearmint, ginger, and white tea flower on the nose. The 60% whole cluster appears to educate the overt fruitiness provided by the very warm 2022 vintage. In this 5 barrel production, we are able to access clear varietal character from the 3 neutral barrels, while the new Ermitage wood provides spice and chocolate and the Sylvain wood carries sweetness across the mid-palate. ~Marc Gagnon, Winemaker
