The Seghesio Sonoma County Zinfandel is a masterful expression of what happens when old-world Italian sensibilities meet the remarkable potential of Sonoma’s finest hillsides. Sourced from historic family vineyards in the Alexander and Dry Creek Valleys, this is a soulful and poised red that prioritises balance and freshness over sheer ripeness. On the first sip, you’ll find a vibrant core of briary fruit - think wild blackberries and juicy black plums picked straight from the hedgerow - all backed up by a refreshing lift that keeps the palate clean and energised. It finishes with a sophisticated crack of black pepper and a hint of savoury spice, making it an exceptional partner for the dinner table. Whether you are firing up the barbecue for high-quality burgers or sitting down to a traditional Sunday roast with all the trimmings, this is a bold, polished bottle that brings a touch of Californian sunshine to the glass while remaining remarkably composed. It is unpretentious, incredibly easy to enjoy, and serves as a timely reminder of why Seghesio remains the definitive benchmark for the region.
