Madrona Estate Hillside Zinfandel El Dorado 2016
$23.95
The aromas are filled with an intriguing complexity of spice and dark berry fruit with subtle hints of sweet molasses and ripe blackberry. This invitation to the first taste is greeted with a boldness of mountain-grown aspects and intensity. Dark cherry, plum, black raspberry and Siskiyou berry fruit envelope the senses on the entry, evening out into a purity of black cherry throughout the mid-palate. Medium to full-bodied, this Zin embraces its rustic heritage, finishing with a slight floral note, the classic earthiness of the region, and the youthful yet approachable tannins one expects from older vineyards. There is no doubt that this wine was grown in the higher elevations, and there is no doubt that the essence of El Dorado is experienced with every sip. This is terroir in a glass!

The Madrona wine all started by a pioneer who found an exceptional landscape that is divestible to the hillside vineyard,
which was located in El Dorado, California in 1973. It was
originally founded by the Senior Bush who wanted to create
this unique wine that has great acidity with perfect balance to
create this comfort when drinking the wine. This authentic
wine was discovered from a 350 year old Madrona tree, which
represented the location to grow the best terroir of the Madrona vineyards. These Madrona trees are found in the greatest growing regions through El Dorado, Sierra Foothills
AVAs.
