Winemaker Tasting Notes:	We began producing an interesting series of vineyard specific old-vine Zinfandels in the 2004 vintage. The collection contains this wine, Wind Machine, along with Three Goose, Old Barn and Wagon Wheel. The vineyard that provided these grapes is in Dry Creek Valley and is protected from frost by a noticeable pair of frost preventing fans. Frost is a true threat to successful grape growing. The towering wind machines at this location give us assurance that our crop is protected. Wind Machine Zinfandel provides the zesty flavors and engaging aromas expected of Dry Creek Zinfandel delivered on a deftly balanced, embraceable platform.
