Carol Shelton "Wild Thing" Mendocino Old Vine Zinfandel is the perfect choice for those who love big, jammy Zinfandels. Sourced from 65-year-old vines, this wine is wild yeast fermented and aged for 8 months in 50% new American oak and 50% older French oak barrels. It offers a terroir-driven complexity with aromas of black cherry, ripe plum, raspberry, cigar box, and vanilla-oak baking spices. The palate is creamy and round, with a long, lush, jammy fruit finish that embodies the bold character of this exceptional Zinfandel.
Very ripe and luscious, this full-bodied Zin oozes rich berryjam flavors on a smooth mouthfilling texture that has a touch of good tannin for grip.
Right out of the briar patch, this Zin is appealingly rustic, with zesty cherry, cranberry, roasted sage and cracked pepper flavors. Drink now through 2031.
