Description

Zinfandel is a famous and famous grape variety, especially in California. Many red wines derive their high quality. In France, however, the planting is prohibited. Nevertheless, some years ago, the Domaine de lArjolle received permission from the French authorities to plant a small vineyard as an experiment. Since Zinfandel is not allowed in France as a grape variety in wines with a regional designation, winemaker Louis Marie Teisserenc is forced to sell this wine as table wine (vin de table). The grape variety may not be mentioned in this case, hence Z de lArjolle! The low yield, the professional vinification and twelve months of aging in oak have produced a special top wine.
