Gail Wines Doris Red Table Wine Sonoma Valley 2021
A punchy, spicy blend of zinfandel (80%), barbera (15%) and Alicante Bouschet (5%). The zinfandel and Alicante were sourced from the Bedrock Vineyard in Sonoma. The fruit was from adjacent blocks so we picked both on the same day, co-fermenting them together.
Traditionally this fruit has always been the base for our red table wine. We then blended in a few barrels of Barbera to level up the acidity and aromatics.

All fermentations went off spontaneously in open-top stainless steel fermenters. In addition to the conferment, approximately half of the Zinfandel and Alicante was fermented whole cluster to further enhance the color and aromatics. Each lot in the blend was aged sur-lie in neutral oak for 10 months before being blended together and laid back down for an additional few months.

Once our wines have finished fermenting, we select the barrels for our single vineyard program. The remaining lots are then blended to produce a more forward drinking. Like all of our wines, all barrels are aged sur-lie and without movement in a blend of stainless steel, neutral 225L oak barrels and 600L puncheons.
