The Morisoli Vineyard is situated along Niebaum Lane in Rutherford, California, just west of Highway 29 in the center of the historic Rutherford Bench. The contiguous, 53-acre vineyard sits at the base of Mt. St. John, planted in alluvial soils, which have been slowly eroded from the Mayacamas mountain range. This small patch of land became home to the first-generation of Morisolis in 1902 when they settled there to begin farming grapes and start a family. These well-drained, gravelly bale-clay and pleasanton-loam soils have consistently yielded wines of great complexity, firm tannins, and abundant fruit flavors.

Medium violet color. Aromas and flavors of blueberry juice, fresh strawberries, black cherries, violets, cherry blossom, vanilla cake, and raspberry liqueur with a silky, crisp, dry-yet-fruity light-to medium body and a warming, complex, long finish manifesting notes of blackberry tea, mixed peppercorns, allspice liqueur, ramps, and strawberry gummies with fine, chewy, well-integrated tannins and moderate oak flavor. A classic bright and crisp Zinfandel.
