This is the second vintage of D Cubed Cellars St. Helena Zinfandel. The blend is 99.4% Zinfandel, .6% Petite Sirah and almost exclusively from the Korte Ranch Vineyard in St. Helena. The Korte Ranch is a classic old St. Helena Vineyard, planted around 1910. Korte Ranch is head-trained and dry-farmed planted on the St. George rootstock and produces wonderful Zinfandel.
The 2006 St. Helena Zinfandel is a very intense wine with aromas of raspberries, vanilla and thyme. The wine is very rich in the mouth with flavors of raspberry, cream, vanilla and other spices. The fresh flavors linger over the long smooth finish.
