This small block of 60 year-old vines just south of Calistoga seems to bring out the most of what makes Zinfandel so charming. The wine’s dark color is immediately appealing. The wild berry aroma, with a touch of licorice and herbs, makes you want to begin pouring. The 2006 Tofanelli Zinfandel set a new ‘length of fermentation’ record at Neyers, taking almost 17 months to ferment to dryness. The result is one of the most complex, and attractive wines we’ve ever bottled. It’s rich and juicy. There’s an underlying sauvage character that, as the French would say, completes the wine. We think this little beauty holds great promise.
