Barefoot®
Reserve
Sonoma County Zinfandel
Wine Description & Tasting
Notes:
Barefoot Reserve Zinfandel grapes were hand picked and transferred
into French & American oak barrels following fermentation.
Enjoy the berry jam and mocha aromas. Vanilla and sweet cherry
will delight your palate. Savor the lingering, spicy finish.
Wine Information/History:
The grapes for this 2002 Barefoot Reserve Zinfandel were
grown in Sonoma County’s
prestigious Dry Creek Valley. High concentrations of gravel in
the soil within this appellation create the perfect drainage to
allow Zinfandel characteristics to flourish.
