The name for our reserve wine, Rocky Reserve®, comes from the deep red, rocky soils of the Florence Vineyard, 1400 feet above Lake Sonoma and Dry Creek Valley. This is a more elegant and restrained Zin, worthy of five or more years of cellaring, though it is packed with fragrant black and blue berry fruits.
Wine Spectator

Spirited and briary, yet retains a sense of refinement. Expressive black cherry, rose petal and cracked pepper flavors pick up speed toward fine-grained tannins. Drink now through 2028.

From a 1,400-feet elevation site thick in volcanic soils, this wine is blended with 13% Petite Sirah and shows a touch of reduction on opening. It evolves to impart juicy lengths of blueberry, black cherry and licorice, with a jolt of cola, the tannins lush and plush.
