2008 Lang Zinfandel, Amador County, Oakmont Vineyards 750ml 6-Pack
A multiple medal winner for the 4th year in a row! Our 2008 Amador County Zinfandel from Oakmont Vineyards continues a tradition of excellence. On a strikingly beautiful hilltop above the Cosumnes River, winegrower Vicki Delpart personally tends her 36-year old vines and consistently provides outstanding fruit. Winemaker Mark McKenna eagerly looks forward to receiving Vicki's grapes; our wines from her vineyard's granite-based Sierra soils are always luscious, fruit-filled, balanced and full bodied.
This 2008 Zinfandel is robust and hearty. Aromas are of raspberries, black cherries, slow-cooked fruits and clove. The wine is rich, full-bodied and silky-smooth. Flavors of pomegranate juice, cherries and strawberries lead seamlessly to a long finish that is firm and smokey. Well balanced and supported by a firm background of toasty French oak which also provides hints of licorice and vanilla.

Amador's vineyards lie at elevations above 1200 feet & produce robust and spicy Zinfandels whose characteristics define this unique California varietal. The Lang’s emphasize the vineyard's unique contribution to wine quality.
Production now tops 1800 cases each year; the Lang’s intend to continue their twenty six-year history of producing small quantities of Amador Zinfandel, Syrah and Barbera from the best vineyards in California’s finest Zinfandel region. Winemaker Mark McKenna and the Lang’s visit these select vineyards often from winter pruning to bud-break in the spring and especially to determine the exact day to harvest in the fall.
The consistent quality of Lang Wines results from a continuing cultivated harmony of cooperation between small, but exceptional wine-growers in Amador County and the Sierra-foothills and our winemaker, Mark McKenna. Enjoy!
