Sourced from Larry Mettler’s vineyard in Lodi, a region famous for its old vine Zinfandel, we harvested the Zinfandel and co-fermented it with 20% Mettler Petite Sirah—giving it improved structure. The wine was barrel-fermented in French oak using native yeast; then bottled after a relatively short barrel aging (9 months), which we believe maintains purity of fruit.
Mensch Zinfandel is fruit forward, soft textured, and graced with an array of jammy raspberry and spice flavors. Tannins are firm, however, and give the wine additional muscle.
