One of the first wines produced by Jackson Hole Winery, Catch & Release is a true expression of Sonoma Valley Zinfandel! Sourced from two unique vineyard sites, it combines fresh fruit expression with old vine texture and structure. The wine is hand-harvested before open-top fermentation in our cellars, with the focus on preserving the intense aromas of the varietal. Aging takes place in a combination of American, Slovonian, and Hungarian Oak for 18 months, adding layers of toast, vanilla, and baking spices. Full-bodied and robust, the wine exloldes with blackberry and bramble on the nose, well-integrated tannins, followed by juicy plum and peppery notes on the finish. A favorite of the winemaking team at backyard barbeques, it also shines with well marbled beef and lamb, tomato-based dishes, and blue cheeses.
