The Vineyard

The Ray Teldeschi Vineyard is located to the west of Healdsburg in the Dry Creek Valley. The vineyards have a southern exposure giving the vines (some of which are 115 years old) plenty of sunlight. Like most great Zinfandel sites, the old vines are head pruned, yields are low and the grapes are packed with intense flavors of cherry, blackberry and boysenberry.

Tasting Notes

The 2016 Jazz Cellars Teldeschi Zinfandel features a dark purple/garnet color with toasty oak notes on the nose. Tasting reveals jammy cherry/berry fruit with a touch of vanilla, nice acidity, and medium tannins, ending with a fruity, full body and cherry sandalwood finish.
