Murphy-Goode Liars Dice Zinfandel 2006
Varietal: Zinfandel
Vineyard: Murphy-Goode
Region: Sonoma County, California
In Liar's Dice Zinfandel, we've created our most passionate wine--one that's so sweet and juicy, it'll leave you wanting more. Our 2006 is a combination of both Dry Creek and Alexander Valley fruit. The Dry Creek grapes are sourced from Walt Dieden's vineyard and contribute black raspberry and currants. Our grapes from the Alexander Valley were sourced from the 80 year-old vines at Ellis Ranch, the 30 year-old dry farmed vines of Elaine Maria and the Trusendi Ranch. The Alexander Valley fruit imparts rich, fruit flavors of black cherry and blackberry jam. Soft tannins perfectly balance the sweetness of the fruit. We blend 4% Carignan to add balance and structure to this well-rounded Zinfandel.
Liar's Dice was made for the backyard barbeque. It sings when paried with lip-smacking baby-back ribs, pulled-pork sandwiches, burgers or anything that combines sweet and spicy flavors.
