Frank Family Vineyards was founded in Calistoga in 1992 and has long kept its faith in Zinfandel in a valley now devoted to Cabernet. Most of the fruit comes from the estate’s S\u0026amp;J Vineyard in Capell Valley, 206 acres east of the Vaca Mountains, and neighboring Napa sites fill out the rest. The grapes were picked in an unhurried October harvest that let the fruit ripen fully, with the final wine clocking in at 90% Zinfandel and 10% Petite Sirah, aged 16 months in a mix of new and previously used French oak.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis Zin is lively and a little spicy, offering sensuous notes of dark plum and ripe raspberry first, with a hint of sandalwood in the background. Its spicy freshness keeps it far from heavy, and the palate is generous but never overwhelming, as the Petite Sirah tannins hold the fruit in shape, and the acidity carries a bright finish. Go ahead and have some with grilled sausages, smoky ribs, or a pepperoni pizza, or just open a bottle to sip amongst good conversation with friends. We don’t have much, so bring home what you can, while you can!\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"First Bottle","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54223787393321,"sku":"2000479","price":34.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0793\/2706\/8457\/files\/FrankFamilyVineyardsZinfandelNapaValley2023_2000479_FB_Rack.jpg?v=1794333055","url":"https:\/\/firstbottlewines.com\/products\/frank-family-vineyards-zinfandel-napa-valley-2023","provider":"First Bottle Wines","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
