About Manzanita Creek 2016 Zinfandel, Harris Kratka Vyd., Alexander Valley
Manzanita Creek was started by two brothers who worked in construction. They decided they wanted to make wine and took a book out of the library. Well, they obviously are very good students because within two years they had a wine selected to the San Francisco Chronicle Top 100 and they continue to turn out award winning and high scoring wines every vintage. Their focus is always small batch wines from outstanding single vineyard plots.
This 2016 Zinfandel comes from the celebrated Harris Kratka Vineyard in the Alexander Valley. The vineyard was planted in 2000 and has ideal microclimate and exposure for ripe, rich Zinfandel. Jack's approach is a very straight-forward, natural one if you will, letting the expression of the terroir and the fruit lead the way. The wine is a classic "Field Blend" consisting of 96% Zinfandel, 3% Carignane and 1% Petite Sirah. The term field blend refers to a wine that is made from grapes grown on one vineyard, of different varietals, all harvested and crushed at the same time.
This was awarded 100 Points Double Gold Medal, Best of Class, Best of Region in the California State Fair Wine Competition. Not much left!
