From 93-year old vines, the 2008 Zinfandel Dina’s Vineyard’s opaque ruby/purple color looks more like a Petite Sirah than a Zinfandel. It exhibits harder tannins as well as a more narrowly constructed mouthfeel than its siblings, and there is something clipped and monolithic about it. No matter how much coaxing I gave it, the wine would not reveal much of itself. I still liked it, but it is overwhelmed by the other wines in the portfolio. Part of the Jess Jackson empire, proprietors Don and Jennifer Hartford not only produce superb Chardonnays and Pinot Noirs, but also some of the finest Zinfandels made in northern California. All of these wines are bottled unfined and unfiltered.Tel. (866) 462-4641; Fax (866) 853-1707
