This White Zinfandel needs an early harvest, because the style of this wine requires lower sugar levels and higher acidity than for full-bodied, red Zinfandel wine. 85% of the grapes are selected from the Lodi American Viticultural Area , with the balance from the Central Coast and North Coast AVAs. The Lodi appellation, surrounding Woodbridge Winery, has been known for outstanding Zinfandel grapes since the Gold Rush era. One of the first designated appellations in California, Lodi is nestled between the Sacramento Delta region and the foothills of the Sierra Nevada. The grapes are gently pressed as whole clusters to extract just a hint of color and delicate flavour from the skins. Almost all red grape varieties have clear juice so the intensity of color comes from the length of skin contact. The juice underwent a long, cold fermentation at 45ºF to accentuate the fresh, berry character of the Zinfandel grape. A small amount of the natural grape sugars was retained to give the wine a delicate sweetness and balance the crisp acidity. To add delicate floral accents to the flavor profile, 7% Muscat and 2% other aromatic white varieties were added. Because White Zinfandel is best enjoyed while young and fresh, it is not oak-aged. This White Zinfandel is popular for its pure expression of fresh fruit, accented with spice and floral notes. The Zinfandel grapes naturally high acidity is reflected in the wine's bright, beautifully balanced flavors. Lightly sweet and refreshing, the wine has delicate strawberry, ripe apple and watermelon character, with subtle nuances of flowers and sweet spices showing a nice finish. (6 x 75 cl)
