    Winemaker Notes

    Eucalyptus mint, firm structure and exotic spice are key elements in our 2014 Big Break Zinfandel. Big Break Zinfandel is always a robust wine, the 2014 shows crisp black cherries, exotic spice, as well as, a toasted oak characteristic. It holds a distinct dusty berry characteristic (reminiscent of picking wild black berries in the hot summer sun), what we affectionately describe as our "Oakley terroir". Big Break Zinfandel can be enjoyed young but will also benefit from 5 to 7 years of cellaring.

    Enjoy this wine with big, spicy foods with plenty of zip, such as, Blacked Ahi.

The Cline winery and vineyards are built on a foundation of deeply rooted respect for the land and love of winemaking.

    Unapologetically bold, spice-driven and jammy, Zinfandel has secured its title as the darling of California vintners by adapting well to the state's diverse microclimates and landscapes. Born in Croatia, it later made its way to southern Italy where it was named Primitivo. Fortunately, the imperial nursery of Vienna catalogued specimens of the vine, and it later made its way to New England in 1829. Parading the true American spirit, Zinfandel found a new home in California during the Gold Rush of 1849. Somm Secret—California's ancient vines of Zinfandel are those that survived the neglect of Prohibition; today these vines produce the most concentrated, ethereal and complex examples.
