96 Point ZinSiLation = FREE SHIPPING
 The best caves, and cave tour in California (hint, hint for those who like to visit). Add a few amazing vineyards, including their Estate properties and 2 great winemakers and you have the key to success. Bella has been producing stunning Zins for 20 years now very quietly, below the radar, but not for long. The 2015 vintage is their top accolade, and I recommend this wine highly! |

With a pretty floral nose of dark ripe fruit, the 2015 Lily Hill Zinfandel exhibits classic and lively Dry Creek flavors of blackberries, black cherries, licorice and exotic spices. The wine has a silky texture with a full mouthfeel, intertwined with a smokey finish. The incorporation of a small amount of petite sirah pushes the finish into rich, substantial length.
Winery Notes: “We have 8 different blocks of zinfandel on the Lily Hill. Each are picked individually according to ripeness. The first fruit was from blocks 5, 6 and 8, hand picked on September 5th, finishing with the Lily Hill petite sirah on September 16th. Fruit was sorted, destemmed and fermented in closed-top tanks for an average of 14 days. The wine was barrelled-down into a combination of French and American oak, 20% new, for 18 months in our wine caves.”
