Veeder’s Brandlin Ranch was planted in 1926 with a Zinfandel which produces complex, intense fruit. The character of this mountain fruit was very interesting to George. In the early days of winemaking at Hendry, he made an arrangement with the vineyard’s owner to tend the vines in exchange for the fruit. When the vineyard was sold, George was able to obtain budwood from the gnarled old vines, which he then grafted onto rootstock in Block 28, where we’ve grown it ever since. The character of the fruit remains distinct from our other Zinfandel and Primitivo cultivars.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe alcoholic fermentation was completed in approximately one week in closed fermentation tanks. The wine was then pressed and put into barrels for malolactic fermentation. Aging was fifteen months in French oak barrels, approximately 65% - 75% of which are new each year.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDeep ruby color. Big, blackberry jam aromatics jump out of the glass. Fruity on the front-palate, medium-heavy and balanced, drawing out to a firm finish of black tea tannins. This is a Zin for Zin-lovers! The bolder of our two Zinfandel offerings. Plenty of structure for burgers, braised lamb shanks, salumi, cheeses, and slow-roasted brisket.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Hendry Ranch","offers":[{"title":"2021","offer_id":43126058745923,"sku":"HRNV0321-75","price":86.0,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0684\/8489\/0691\/files\/Hendry_Ranch_Zinfandel_Block_28.png?v=1776825801","url":"https:\/\/shop.botella.sg\/products\/zinfandel-hendry-block-28","provider":"Botella","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
