Winemaker Notes

Aromas of ripe red cherry, black cherry, blackberry, black pepper and baking spice. On the palate, vibrant fruit, spice and a hint of chocolate.

Chef Brett recommends pairing Saldo with BBQ baby back ribs or five spice crusted ahi tuna.

The new vintage of our iconic Zinfandel is beautifully balanced. Our Zinfandel grapes are carefully harvested from  vineyards in California’s North Coast and Central Valley. We collaborate with grower partners, many of whom we’ve worked with for generations to carefully source the best quality grapes. From there, the best quality fruit is fermented on skins, giving the wine texture, structure, and color. The wine is then aged for about 10 months in American barrels. The juicy, spice-driven pour is delicious on its own, but can stand up to the strongest of flavors. We love pairing it with fresh and complex Mexican cuisine.
