The Highwire single-vineyard Zinfandel from Hartford stands out with its consistently unique notes of cracked white pepper, setting it apart from other Zinfandel bottlings by the winery. It showcases concentrated aromas and flavours of blackberry and boysenberry, a characteristic signature of the vineyard that shines through each vintage. These fruit profiles harmoniously complement the lingering notes of allspice and sappy dark fruits, creating a youthful finish that leaves a lasting impression.
