This 100% Zinfandel, all from the Gilsson Vineyard in the Russian River Valley of Sonoma County is pretty much only available from the winery at it’s normal price of $29.

Today’s 6 bottles for $89.99 deal; however, slashes that price to just $15 a bottle! That’s a discount of 52%, or over $100, after factoring in the savings from our super low $5 shipping cost.

Tin Barn Gilsson Vineyard Russian River Valley Zinfandel - Just Get It

From the bottle:

Tin Barn Vineyards celebrates those hidden treasures that lie off the map. Winemaker Michael Lancaster works to create single vineyard wines expressing the true character of our Sonoma County home.

Gilsson Vineyard is a stretch of sandy loam east of Windsor, where morning fog allows the fruit to thrive in mild conditions. We have relied on this treasured source of Zinfandel for over a decade. With its velvety mouthfeel and deep black raspberry flavors, this is an uncommonly seductive wine.

Produced & Bottled by Tin Barn Vineyards
15.6% Alcohol

The 2014 Tin Barn Gilsson Vineyard Russian River Valley Zinfandel begins with a very nice, very attractive, succulent aroma of red cherry and a touch of a raisin-y note plus spice, vanilla and more.

In the mouth this is tasty and balanced with a bit of an earthy, oaky streak. It's big and loaded with flavor but still elegant and refined, and not over the top like many other Zins. It carries the 15.6% alcohol quite well and it gets even better with some air.

It ends slightly tannic and very long with just a touch of heat and lingering spice under the sweet tasting fruit on the dry finish. I have to say I really, really enjoyed this wine and it's drinking absolutely wonderfully right now. Just get it!
