Croix ‘Moon Mountain’ Zinfandel Sonoma County 2022 750ml

Sitting at 1300 feet elevation along the western facing slopes of the Mayacamas Mountain Range, the Monte Rosso Vineyard commands significant attention as a historical winegrowing reference point in Sonoma County. The site historically produces wines of high acidity across all varieties due to the volcanic influence and minerality in the homogenous Red Hill Loam soil, the southern facing aspect of the vineyard, and the elevation. This is certainly true of our production Zinfandel from the property.
