Winemaker Notes

Party Line is a throwback to the old days of Zinfandel when California’s wine-growing families made wine for everyday consumption. In old Napa, a teenaged egg and produce farmer named Aldo Biale employed the code name ‘black chicken’ on the phone to keep his bootleg jugs of homegrown and homemade Zinfandel a secret from neighbors and authorities. Vibrant and versatile, Robert Biale Vineyards’ Party Line is a fully legal classic Zinfandel from vineyards within California’s North Coast region.

Party Line is a fun and light hearted red wine that is made to enjoy now. Layered with aromatics of dusty strawberries, red licorice, black cherries and raspberry taffy. The entry is soft and weighty with succulent mid palate tannins that make for a long and juicy finish.
