Mount Peak Rattlesnake Zinfandel

The Mount Peak story begins more than a century ago at the celebrated Monte Rosso Vineyard and culminates with the revival of Mount Peak Winery, a vestige of one of California’s ghost wineries. Our wines are inspired by this great place, and we pay tribute to the extraordinary winery that once stood there by capturing its enduring spirit in our wine.

Description

WINE NOTES: The 2015 Mount Peak Rattlesnake Zinfandel is a tribute to the crest called Rattlesnake Hill, the highest point of the Monte Rosso Vineyard. It’s famous for the rattlesnakes living among the vines, seeking the abundant sunshine by day and coiling around and inside the vines at nightfall. This Zinfandel is rich, textured and inky dark with an alluring juicy quality. It’s layered with robust and ripe fruit tones including plum, black cherry and blueberry tied together with black pepper, licorice and cocoa dust. The luscious, lasting finish adds spice and vanilla to frame the fruit.
