Description
This Zinfandel is the ultimate expression of its home in the Dry Creek Valley, where the name BACA literally translates to "berry" in Latin. It is crafted with a modern, luxury touch by a next-generation winemaking family, using high-tech optical sorting to ensure only the most perfect fruit makes it into your glass. You will find it to be a remarkably plush and zesty wine that balances intense fruit with a sophisticated, savory edge. It is exactly the kind of bottle you bring out when you want to share a true craft find that feels both high-end and deeply soulful.
