Matthiasson Sonoma Valley Zinfandel Armor Plate Vineyard 2022 NO20230816 and distills every dropArmor Plate is a treasure: a tiny dry farmed, organically tended block of Sonoma Valley Zinfandel planted in the 1890s, now 130 plus years old, owned by the Hamel family (a viticulture client of Steve's). Located in volcanic alluvium near Glen Ellen, the vines deliver Zinfandel that looks nothing like the jammy stereotype. Matthiasson ferments half whole cluster, half destemmed, presses after 14 days on the skins, and ages the wine in neutral Burgundy
