Wine Information:
A perfect example of why Contra Costa should be included in the list of great Zinfandel terroirs. All the great Zinfandel characteristics are present—red & blue fruits, sweet spice, balanced tannin—rounded out by a powerful concentration and richness. In fact, the Duarte is so ideally indicative of what Zinfandel is capable of in Contra Costa that Janis Robinson requested vineyard information & images to be included in her new book about domestic wine, out later this year.
