To launch the celebration of the season we've just released a very special pair of ports. They are from our estate Zinfandel and Sangiovese grapes. In each case the underlying wine and the brandy that was used to stop the fermentations came from the same block of grapes. Each was aged two years on French oak, and have already brought many happy smiles in the tasting room. Cheers!
