it's ZINFANDELICIOUS

“Barbara, please. You do this every year. You know we can’t be together. Can’t we just be thankful for the four days of amazing gadgets and unbridled passion we have?”

SLAP!

“How dare you mock my pain. You know these silly trinkets and gizmos they send us here to shill at this consumer electronics convention event mean nothing to me. It’s you! It’s always been you that keeps me coming back. And now I have to watch you get on another plane and fly back to your wife while I go back to nothing? I can’t take it anymore, Dave! I just can’t!”

“Get a hold of yourself, Babs! You know as well as I do this is all we have and this is all we’ll ever have. What we want deep down in our hearts doesn’t change that. Who we are, these creatures of commerce and technology, it’s the only thing we have that’s real. This thing between you and me is just a fairy tale, kid. You gotta see that.”

“Oh, just because I see something doesn’t mean I have to like it, Dave."

“Well then, look here, Babs. Look at this bottle of 2009 Laura Michael Oat Hill Estate Zin. Remember 2009? That was the year you wore that novelty hot dog costume. . .truly special.”

"How could I forget?"

Take this bottle of that excellent vintage, Barbara. Maybe on one of those lonely 361 nights until next year, you can catch the dark, rich flavors of blackberries, plums and cherries, and think of me.”

“But the ample points of complexity from notes of vanilla, espresso, nutmeg and alluring wood nuances won’t be the same without your arms around me. Perhaps I’ll save it until next year as a kind of promise that you’ll come back to me. It’ll be my way of knowing that no matter how bad sales get, no matter what happens in the whirlwind tech industry, we’ll always have each other.”

"Sure."

2009 Oat Hill Estate Zinfandel, Napa Valley 750ml 3-Pack

2009 was an excellent vintage for our Estate. Light spring rains were followed by warm summer days and no abrupt climates changes at season’s end. This allowed us to be highly selective during harvest, choosing the very best fruit only when completely ripe. The grapes we harvested were abundantly flavorful, well balanced and aromatic.

The wine was aged in American oak barrels for 15 months. Immensely fragrant and brimming with dark, rich flavors of blackberries, plums and cherries, this wine is dense and highly fruity but with ample points of complexity from notes of vanilla, espresso, nutmeg and alluring wood nuances.

Vendor Details

Laura Michael Wines

Founded:
2029
Owner:
Laura Zahtila Swanton
Location:
Calistoga, CA
Laura Zahtila Swanton knows the many challenges of establishing a boutique winery dedicated to crafting small quantities of fine wine in the Napa Valley. She has experienced them all in her demanding, yet delicious, journey from fledging winery to award-winning Cabernet Sauvignon and Zinfandel producer.
 
A long-time wine enthusiast, Owner and Proprietor Laura Zahtila Swanton purchased the Calistoga winery estate that would become Zahtila Vineyards from the Traulsen family in 1999. At the time, Laura was a sales specialist with Cisco Systems in San Jose. It was a career that required intimate knowledge of high-tech product application. Knowing how the technology worked was critical to her success in selling the product.
 
Today, Laura's tenacity for learning systems and science is directed at running her small winery and vineyard estate dedicated to limited-production, premium red wines. Since 1999, Laura has managed all winemaking processes from grape sourcing to the logistics of launching and operating a winery. Her zeal to understand winegrowing at its root has her pruning, picking, irrigating and collecting soil samples in the vineyard. A thirst for winemaking knowledge encourages her participation in crush, pump-overs, racking and bottling.
 
"I do it all," says Laura. "It's so important that I work alongside every member of the Zahtila team from the temporary harvest help to my associate winemaker. I'm not one to stand on the sidelines, and fortunately because we are as small as we are, I can be actively involved in every aspect of this business."
