Raspberry and black pepper nose. Juicy red fruit carries through in a delicious, medium bodied zinfandel. Damas’ hand-tended vines are spoiled rotten. Planted in deep soil made from decomposed granite, on a sunny slope overlooking the historic Eschen vineyard. DAMAS means “ladies” in Spanish, but it is also an acronym made up of the initials of the vineyard founders–Deborah and Mara.
