2021 Rom BelkvingWhite Zin
Rare Gem! Only a few bottles remain...
This wine is the epitome of summer; jumping through a sprinkler whilst eating a vanilla ice cream cone with rainbow sprinkles. Ridiculously fun and drinkable - tastes like liquid SweetTart candy while being perfectly dry.
Napa Valley would have us believe that the California wine industry was built on a foundation of Cabernet Sauvignon, but the real anti-hero responsible for cementing the reputation of the region was a tidal wave of cloyingly sweet ‘white Zinfandel’. For a time it seemed that ‘white Zin’ was destined to remain the butt of all wine jokes… but it turns out that, if handled conscientiously, white wine made from Zinfandel grapes ROCKS. Produced from fruit grown on the limestone and schist soils of the Rorick Heritage Vineyard at 2000’ elevation, the Rom Belkving is a bright and delicious reimagining of your great-aunt’s candy-sweet white Zinfandel. Crisp, dry, and with a crackling lightning bolt of sapid acidity at its core that’s got more zip than a Tron light cycle. We produced only 49 cases of it in 2021, so brush away those crystal tears and get amongst the White Zin while it lasts!
