Shypoke calls the Calistoga AVA home. Their estate vineyard is located in the north-western corner of Napa Valley. The dirt to bottle history began in 1904, when Peter Heitz' great-grandparents immigrated from Alsace and literally planted roots and built bonded winery #103 for the production of fine wines. Through five generations of grape growers and winemakers, the Heitz family has continued the vision and efforts begun in 1904. Each wine honors the traditions of a family working together, to farm heirloom vines and to hand craft the resulting fruit into uniquely elegant and honest wines of place and vintage.
The Twin Rock Zinfandel is made from Zinfandel vines organically grown on a ridge line of red volcanic soil and rock that was planted in 1945. These dry farmed, old vines create stunning aromatics of white pepper, red fruit and pretty lift in the wine. An absolutely gorgeous Zinfandel.
