Usage tips and food pairings

Grilled food
Mild cheeses
Buffet
Pork
Sweet dessert
Beef
Stews
Game

Various meat dishes – pork, beef or game – are all excellent partners for this wine, especially grilled. Pots and stews, tomato pastas, ratatouille, stuffed bell peppers, the appetisers of anchovies-olive and even a cake rich in dark chocolate are a couple for this wine. This fine Zinfandel takes a special place as a partner for strong-tasting and salty cheeses.

Wine is produced from grapes of vines over 45, matures in French oak and represents a long tradition of elegance and consistency in the wine type, easily exaggerated. For Zinfandel, this is only medium-bodied and the alcohol content remains moderate 14, 5% level. Add nuance Shiraz and Petite Sirah, , both of which are in the top five percent. This wine would be great for an ambiance by the fireplace, but at its best it is a food wine.

Full-bodied, rich tannins, dark notes of cherry, raspberry jam, notes of plum, notes of vanilla, moccha, mustapippurinen.

Producer story

The Kautz family's ambitious project, Ironstone, is headquartered in Lodi, California, but its actual production, visitor center, and the amphitheater used for concerts draw people to the village of Murphys, which was an important center during the California Gold Rush. The combination of excellent wine, events, and high-quality hospitality defines the estate's operations, although their wine production alone is significant both in quantity and quality. Ironstone is one of California's largest family-owned wineries and operates in line with sustainable practices.
