Klinker Brick Old Ghost Zinfandel

An intense nose of black pepper and botanicals lead to full-bodied flavours of juicy pomegranate and ripe cherry layered with herb aromas. True to the Klinker Brick style, this wine is bursting with acidity and concentrated notes of bright berries and dark chocolate. Layers of complexity lead to a core of medium tannins with a long, richly textured finish.

Old Ghost Zinfandel represents the finest Old Vine Zinfandel that Klinker Brick produces each year. The name was derived from the Tule Fog rising from the ground during the winter in Lodi, which keeps the vineyards moist and cool, and also bestows a ghostly appearance in the vineyard. These 100 year old ancient vines yield less than one ton per acre, providing the wine its ethereal and concentrated dark fruit qualities. Given the incredible longevity of these vineyards, we believe that the Old Ghost tends to them on our behalf, producing wine that will satisfy any collector for years to come.
