Homefire 2020 Firework Vineyard Zinfandel

Dry Creek Valley, Sonoma County, California

📝 Product Description

Homefire 2020 Firework Vineyard Zinfandel is a bold and expressive red wine handcrafted from a single vineyard in the renowned Dry Creek Valley AVA of Sonoma County. This limited-production reserve wine captures the essence of old-vine Zinfandel with lush fruit, rich spice, and impeccable balance.

Made from vines that are hand-tended and hand-harvested, the “Firework” cuvée is a tribute to both place and patience. Aged carefully to integrate the naturally bright berry fruit with layers of vanilla bean, baking spice, and toasty oak, it delivers the kind of complexity that makes Dry Creek Valley one of the premier Zinfandel regions in the world.

From first sip to final drop, this wine showcases the brambly richness and vibrant structure that fans of Zinfandel crave—especially those who seek authenticity and vineyard expression.

🍇 Tasting Notes

• Appearance: Deep garnet with a crimson rim
• Aromas: Ripe blackberry, raspberry jam, vanilla bean, cracked pepper, and toasted oak
• Palate: Juicy red and black fruit upfront, evolving into notes of cinnamon, clove, and cocoa. Brambly mid-palate with a silky mouthfeel and a long, spicy finish. Subtle oak aging provides structure without overpowering the vibrant fruit.
• Finish: Spiced, warm, and lingering with hints of licorice and dried herbs
