PEACHY CANYON WINERY

Peachy Canyon is a family owned and operated winery in beautiful Paso Robles on California’s Central Coast, near Hearst Castle and Big Sur. Founded by Doug and Nancy Beckett in 1988, Peachy Canyon has long been praised as a producer of award-winning California wines that exemplify respect for terroir and dedicated winemaking. Zinfandel has long been Peachy Canyon’s flagship varietal—oftentimes with multiple vineyard designates in production. These red Zinfandels range from elegant and restrained to fruit forward, each an exemplary call to its own terroir. With these exemplary Zins Peachy Canyon has been instrumental in establishing Paso Robles’ reputation as a key California wine region. Peachy Canyon has been ranked in the top 100 wines in the world by Wine Spectator magazine, and its many wines have been ranked with 90-point-plus scores, often for multiple vintages. In June 2019 their 2 sons, Jake and Josh Beckett, took over the business from their parents.

+724453 · 12x750ml

100% Petite Sirah.
Bright magenta in color. Smells of coffee grounds, cedar, leather, tar and asphalt after a fresh rain.

Acid driven, this wine has a lengthy, spicy finish that shows generous amounts of nutmeg and cinnamon.
