<H1>2007 Neal Family Vineyards Zinfandel -- Neal Family Vineyards Shopping Cart</H1> <B>$24.00</B> <P> <p>The growing season for 2007 was mixed with stretches of heat and cool periods, creating a wide span of harvests dates and very interesting fruit characters in the vineyard. The younger vines planted at my childhood home property in Rutherford were harvested first and the Petite Syrah on the same property came in a month later. Our sixth bottling has&nbsp;a bit more&nbsp;Petite Syrah than the 2006 vintage, giving the finished wine a lovely balance of aromas and fruit, plus great structure and color. Aged for 11 months in 45% new Hungarian oak puncheons, the result is a delightful wine with complex flavors and color.<br /><br />Lovely aromas of berries with hints of spice, and a rich, sweet oak give this wine a complex character. A sweet berry pie fruit flavor, a touch of pepper and a mouth-coating richness make this our biggest Zinfandel to date. Vanilla and cherry cream flavors, dried fruit and chocolate covered cherry notes accompany a big, velvety tannin texture and long finish.<br /><br />1200 cases were produced</p> <p>Harvest Information:<br />Harvest Date: September 7 to October 9, 2007<br />Vineyard Locations: 100% Napa Valley </p> <p>Cooperage:&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<br />Barrel-Aged 11 Months<br />45% New Oak (Hungarian) &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;<br /><br />Bottled on December 17, 2008&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<br />Technical Data:<br />Alcohol: 14.9%<br />pH: 3.74<br />TA: 0.60%<br /><br /></p> </P> <P><B>Other products in the category <A HREF="http://www.nexternal.com/neal/Category2" TITLE="Current Release">Current Release</A>:</B> <BR clear=left><BR><LI><A HREF=http://www.nexternal.com/neal/Product14 TITLE="2005 Neal Family Vineyard Designate Mixed Set">2005 Neal Family Vineyard Designate Mixed Set</A> <BR clear=left><BR><LI><A HREF=http://www.nexternal.com/neal/Product21 TITLE="2005 Neal Family Vineyard Designate Mixed Set 1.5 L">2005 Neal Family Vineyard Designate Mixed Set 1.5 L</A> <BR clear=left><BR><LI><A HREF=http://www.nexternal.com/neal/Product15 TITLE="2005 Neal Family Vineyards Howell Mountain Estate Cabernet Sauvignon">2005 Neal Family Vineyards Howell Mountain Estate Cabernet Sauvignon</A> <BR clear=left><BR><LI><A HREF=http://www.nexternal.com/neal/Product27 TITLE="2005 Neal Family Vineyards Wykoff Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon">2005 Neal Family Vineyards Wykoff Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon</A> <BR clear=left><BR><LI><A HREF=http://www.nexternal.com/neal/Product57 TITLE="2006 Neal Family Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 750ml">2006 Neal Family Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 750ml</A> <BR clear=left><BR><LI><A HREF=http://www.nexternal.com/neal/Product61 TITLE="2006 Neal Family Vineyards Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 500ml">2006 Neal Family Vineyards Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 500ml</A> <BR clear=left><BR><LI><A HREF=http://www.nexternal.com/neal/Product66 TITLE="2006 Neal Family Vineyards Rutherford Dust Petite Syrah">2006 Neal Family Vineyards Rutherford Dust Petite Syrah</A> </P> <BR clear=left><BR><P><A HREF="http://www.nexternal.com/neal" TITLE="Neal Family Vineyards Products">Neal Family Vineyards Products</A></P> <BR clear=left><BR><BR><BR><BR> <BR><A HREF="http://www.nealvineyards.com">Neal Family Vineyards Wines</A> <BR>Neal Family Vineyards <A HREF="http://www.nexternal.com" TITLE="shopping cart">shopping cart</A> powered by Nexternal
