It's a bright, bold world out there, friends. A world full of fruits, tannins, oak, smoky flavors, acidity, mouthfeel, and more! So dive in! Start exploring! You only have yourself to blame for wines you haven't drunk yet!
2009 Black Zeppelin Central Coast 750ml 2-Pack
A blend of some of our best lots went into this flagship wine; six barrels and puncheons of this Black Zeppelin were made from two vineyards of clone 3 Petite Sirah, one in southwestern Monterey County and one in Paso Robles, as well as a very low yielding clone 7 Syrah from Paso Robles; a tiny amount of Alicante Bouschet was added for completely redundant color. The finished wine shows dark cherry and plum fruit, black pepper and clove, caramel oak and smoky cedar flavors, and has a long finish.
Gold Medal 2012 Pacific Rim International (this wine's first competition)
Zeppelin Winery is a very small producer of super premium wines, based on the Central Coast of California. Founded in 2009 by winemaker Stillman Brown of Red Zeppelin Winery and wine veteran Dan Lewis (he's the office guy), we produce tiny lots of Syrah and other misunderstood varietals, with almost invariably insane labels. Most can only be purchased directly, but once in a while they emerge into the light of day.
