Hatton Daniels
Mokelumne Glen Zweigelt
Lodi, Central Valley, California, USA
The vintners say this Zweigelt is “vibrant and alive,” and “meant for drinking in large, glorious quantities.” They also say it’s a zero-sulfur wine, which some claim prevents hangovers. They say they make “no claim in this regard, but further study is recommended.”.
This wine is a tart little blast of cool-climate German grape, grown in Lodi. The earth that shows on the nose is mind-blowing. Raspberry fruit, oh yeah. Coffee grounds? Yep. Cola? Mm hmm. Meat? There’s some of that. The palate shows just as savory and just as dark, with tart berries, black tea and pepper.
