Ironstone Reserve Zinfandel 2020 – Rous Vineyard Premium Red Wine

Ironstone Vineyards Ancient Vine Zinfandel 2020

Sourced from California’s renowned Lodi region, Ironstone Vineyards’ Ancient Vine Zinfandel is crafted to captivate both seasoned wine enthusiasts and casual drinkers alike. This exceptional red wine originates from century-old vines—over 107 years mature—that impart a depth rarely found in younger varietals, making each bottle a testament to time-honored craftsmanship.

The 2020 vintage delivers a bold yet balanced drinking experience, perfect for those seeking a richly layered red wine without overpowering intensity. On first pour, velvety aromas of sun-ripened blackberries mingle with warm brown spices and hints of clove, creating an inviting fragrance that hints at its complexity. A touch of caramel sweetness adds depth, while subtle vanilla notes from barrel-aging soften its profile into something effortlessly smooth—a hallmark of Ironstone’s meticulous winemaking process.

What truly sets this Lodi Zinfandel apart is its texture: lush tannins provide structure without harshness, leading to a long-lasting finish that lingers on dark fruit nuances rather than bitterness. Ideal for pairing with hearty dishes like grilled meats or chocolate desserts, it’s equally enjoyable on its own as an after-dinner indulgence or during special occasions where elegance meets approachability.

At 14.5% alcohol by volume (ABV), this full-bodied wine strikes a harmonious balance between power and finesse—a rare feat achieved through its ancient vines’ concentrated flavors and skilled blending techniques. Whether you’re exploring California’s finest wines or searching for an unforgettable bottle to celebrate life’s moments, this Ironstone Vineyards offering stands out as a masterclass in Old Vine Zinfandel character.

Crafted with care over decades-long vine heritage, this wine embodies Lodi’s terroir while delivering seamless richness that resonates long after the glass is empty—a must-try for anyone craving authentic varietal expression paired with timeless sophistication.*
