A sensational offering, the 2007 Zinfandel Grande Vineyard is less evolved than some of its siblings, but it possesses more punch, power, concentration, and layers of texture. A dense ruby/purple hue is followed by lots of blueberry, black raspberry, and black cherry fruit, as well as sensational texture, purity, and depth. It should hit its peak in another year or two, and evolve for at least a decade.
This is a beautiful portfolio of wines from Robert Biale Vineyards. The Stagecoach Vineyard is a large parcel nearly 500 acres on the hillsides above Oakville.
