ZINFANDEL

2005 RESERVE ZINFANDEL, Dry Creek Valley. The 2005 vintage was definitely the vintage of that decade. The beautiful garnet color is a feast for the eyes while the expansive berry bouquet informs the nose that this is genuine Dry Creek Zinfandel. The mid-palate is entirely dominated by jammy flavors of blackberry and bing cherry. The flavors are pulled together in the lengthy, elegant finish.  204 cases produced. 15.3% Alcohol. Retail $70.00/bottle, Wine Club $50.00/bottle.

2007 ZINFANDEL, ESTATE, Dry Creek Valley.  The Zinfandel blocks on the Teldeschi Estate range from 5 years to nearly a century old, with three of the four vineyards planted on benchland and the fourth on the Dry Creek Valley floor. The wine displays these perfect locales and the near-perfect weather conditions of 2007 with a bright red hue, an explosion of jammy fruit, and just the right amount of tannin and acidity to pair beautifully with either haute cuisine in a fine restaurant or home-cooked pasta at your own kitchen table. Unmistakable classic Dry Creek  terroir from an exceptional vintage. 360 cases produced. 16.1% Alcohol. Retail $60.00/bottle, Wine Club $36.00.

2008 ZINFANDEL, ESTATE, Dry Creek Valley.  Fruity, big and bodacious. It is our most massive Zinfandel to date.

Opens up nicely  during a meal with firm acidity. 394 cases produced. 15.8% Alcohol.  Retail $60.00/bottle, Wine Club $36.00.

2016 ZINFANDEL, ESTATE, Dry Creek Valley. In the glass, the wine exhibits a beautiful deep purple opacity and a lovely black cherry nose.

2019 ZINFANDEL, ESTATE, Dry Creek Valley.  Yes, for me this is a very young wine for me to release, however you may be surprised to find out how approachable this wine really is. Fruity, big and bodacious. It is one of our most massive Zinfandels ever. Quintessential Dry Creek Valley Zinf hits the mark with concentrated dark fruit aromas and Bing cherry flavors. Blackberry jam comes through in the finish to compliment briary fruit tannins.

PETITE SIRAH

1999 PETITE SIRAH, Dry Creek Valley. Huge and jammy, deep purple black color entice you to breathe deeply. Big fruit takes its place on center stage while the lengthy finish and huge mouth-feel demand an encore from now until at least 2024. The 1999 vintage was harvested mostly in October. The weather cooperated beautifully with warm days and the best part – no rain. 14.3% Alcohol. Retail $70.00/bottle, Wine Club $36.00.

2001 PETITE SIRAH, Dry Creek Valley. The Petite Sirah vines at the Teldeschi Home Ranch are some of the oldest on the estate, with one block that was planted before Prohibition. The intensity of the old vine fruit shows in the deep dark color and powerful berry nose. The solidly structured mid-palate is dominated by massive fruit layered over a solid tannic base. The wine was bottle-aged for seven years before release, giving it soft, supple tannins and a smooth and lengthy finish. 13.8% Alcohol. Retail $70/00 bottle, Wine Club $36.00.

2002 PETITE SIRAH, Lot 1, Dry Creek Valley. Since this wine was made
in 2002, I’ve always considered it to be a 25 – 30 year old wine. This month it is 20 years old, so I have decided to send it to the wine club first, before it is released to the general public. Usually when wine is finished fermenting it is purple in color. This wine was black. I had extracted everything that grape had to offer. The grapes came off of the last block of the winery ranch. It was the first crop to come off of these young Petite Sirah vines. Who says that vines have to be middle aged to make great wine. 298 cases produced. 15.2% Alcohol. Retail $70.00, Wine Club $36.00.

2002 PETITE SIRAH, Lot 2, Dry Creek Valley. This wine reveals the character and complexity derived from the Teldeschi Home Ranch benchland site. The intense dark color immediately indicates Petite Sirah in the glass. Bombs of blackberry and plum dominate the surface while expansive but magnificently smooth tannins percolate beneath. Still fresh and slightly tight at release, this wine should continue to evolve and give pleasure into 2026. This is our most massive Petite Sirah to date at 15.3% Alcohol. Retail $70.00/bottle, Wine Club $36.00.

2003 PETITE SIRAH, Dry Creek Valley. At first glance, this wine looks black. Powerful blackberry and blueberry extraction push this creation to the edge. Layered complexity throughout the mid-palate with a long warm finish. Dark, inky and chewy, this wine has the potential to age gracefully for more than 2 decades. 498 cases produced. 15.3% Alcohol. Retail $70/00 bottle, Wine Club $36.00.

TERRANOVA

Meaning “new world” Terranova is Dan’s unique blend which honors his father, Frank, who first started farming the family vineyards in 1946. The blend comprises Carignane, Valdiguie, Zinfandel, and Petite Sirah.

2003 TERRANOVA, Dry Creek Valley. Dark, dark purple color foreshadows that the heft of this vintage’s Terranova will rival one of Dan’s Reserve Zinfandels. The massive tannins soften up after only a few minutes in the glass and take a back seat to heaps of fruit. Blackberry up front and blueberry on the finish. Drink now or in 2 years for the ultimate Teldeschi experience. 373 cases produced.  14.8% Alcohol. Retail $60.00/bottle, Wine Club $36.00.

2015 TERRANOVA, Dry Creek Valley. The color in the glass shows a combination of Carignane’s bright red and Petite’s deep purple. The nose displays an impressive array of rich berry flavors one expects from Teldeschi benchland fruit. Full-bodied and exceptionally well-balanced mid-palate resulting from the proper amount of bottle aging. The Zinfandel and Valdiguie grapes round out the flavors to make this wine a perfect accompaniment to Northern Italian or Provencal cuisine. 70 cases produced. 15.2% Alcohol.
