| Description: | Winemaker Notes\r\n\r\n\r\nRattlesnake Zinfandel is a tribute to the crest called Rattlesnake Hill, the highest point of the Monte Rosso Vineyard. It\u2019s famous for the rattlesnakes living among the vines, seeking the abundant sunshine by day and coiling around and inside the vines at nightfall.\r\nGrapes for the 2016 Rattlesnake Zinfandel were primarily selected from Monte Rosso Vineyard (86%) including the Rattlesnake block. Full-bodied with a spicy frame, this Zinfandel boasts rich aromatics and explosive dark fruit notes. Ripe black raspberry, blueberry, cedar and earth are balanced and seamlessly interwoven throughout the mid-palate.\r\nABOUT Mount Peak WINERY\r\nThe Mount Peak story begins more than a century ago at the celebrated Monte Rosso Vineyard and culminates with the revival of Mount Peak Winery, a vestige of one of California\u2019s ghost wineries. Our wines are inspired by this great place, and we pay tribute to the extraordinary winery that once stood there by capturing its enduring spirit in our wine.\r\nTHE Inspiration Of Our PORTFOLIO\r\nToday, Mount Peak wines display the focus and finesse that are the hallmarks of this remarkable place with three distinct wines. Sentinel\u2122\u00a0Cabernet Sauvignon, named after the shield-shaped block that marks the entrance to the vineyard. Rattlesnake\u2122\u00a0Zinfandel pays homage to Monte Rosso\u2019s Rattlesnake Hill, a place known for the snakes that sun themselves at the highest point in the vineyard. Gravity\u00ae\u00a0Red Blend, so named for a remote, hard-to-reach block where the vines cling to a steep slope that terminates at the mouth of a canyon. Inspired by this storied vineyard, our portfolio of wines are a tribute to California\u2019s fabled winemaking history. |
