Montevina's 2008 White Zinfandel boasts cheery carnation hue. Aromas of kiwi, watermelon, and strawberry prance out of the glass and couple upwith juicy grape flavors to jitterbug on your tongue. A brisk acidity adds a touch of sass to the act. A touch of sweetness makes this a delightfully quaffable rose. Whether dining on spicy Asian inspired dishes, sitting poolside, or out for a night on the town, Montevina 2008 White Zinfandel is the perfect pink to drink.
You can’t judge a wine by its winegrape’s color. Montevina’s vineyards may be full of red grapes but not if you look through rose colored glasses. Bob Trinchero may have been wearing them when he turned the wine world on its head in 1973 and began making White Zinfandel from Amador County grapes. TheTrinchero Family purchased Montevina in 1988 and we continue to not limit ourselves to one style of wine or winemaking. Zinfandel is our passion. Montevina makes eight different Zinfandels from Amador County Vineyards ranging from our crisp off-dry White Zinfandel to concentrated and complex single vineyard Zins to our rich decadent Zinfandel Port. Zinfandel’s berry fruit flavors and aromas look great in pink. You might ask, how can two very different styles be cut from the same cloth? It’s all in the timing.
