Liar's Dice, Zinfandel, Sonoma Country

Our partner Tim Murphy was the architect of our Zinfandel program in a plan conceived over 20 years of breakfasts and liar's dice games at Mickey's Grille in Geyserville. Tim's circle of friends at these early morning meetings were some of the finest Zin growers in Sonoma County and now are the fruit source for Liar's Dice Zinfandel. David Ready Jr. Notes: Our goal with the Liar's Dice Zinfandel is to produce a wine with dark fruit flavors of black raspberry and black cherry. We want to harvest the fruit as ripe as possible to achieve these flavors, yet careful not to let the grapes get over-ripe. The wine is aged in small oak cooperage to add structure and complex notes of vanilla and toast. Alc. 14.5% by Vol.
