Tasting Note

The nose reveals aromas of briary black raspberry, lavender, and graham cracker crust. On the palate, bright acidity frames a vibrant mix of blue, black, and red fruit, with a subtle thread of cocoa powder carrying through the mid-palate. The finish is lifted by gentle spice, delivering an elegant, velvety mouthfeel and a balanced richness that highlights both fruit and savoury depth.

Product Notes

The Seghesio Cortina Dry Creek Valley Zinfandel is an exquisite American wine hailing from California. Its bouquet embodies a robust complexity, combining aromas of red fruits like cherry and raspberry with subtle hints of spice, oak and black pepper notes. It’s full-bodied and harmoniously balanced on the palate, offering a striking depth of flavour with well-integrated tannins. A delectable fusion of ripe fruit sweetness, pleasing tartness and rich earthiness, this wine delivers an elegantly smooth finish, making it absolutely delightful for discerning palates. It pairs beautifully with hearty Italian dishes. A truly captivating choice for Zinfandel enthusiasts.
