The Twin Sun Reserve Old Vine Zinfandel 2021 (Mevushal) 750ml is a distinguished dry red wine from Lodi, California, crafted exclusively from 100% Zinfandel grapes harvested at optimal ripeness from venerable old vines. This careful selection yields a wine of deep concentration and complexity.

Matured for 16 months in French oak barrels, it develops layered aromas of white pepper and dried cherry that lead into a palate rich with vibrant raspberry jam, subtle spice, and nuanced oak influence. At 14.4% alcohol, it offers a full-bodied yet approachable profile, characterized by smooth texture, low tannins, and hints of peppercorn that balance its vibrant fruitiness. Certified Mevushal, this wine has undergone flash pasteurization, ensuring its kosher status while allowing handling and serving by non-observant individuals without compromising religious observance. It carries OU and Rabbi Padwa kosher certifications, making it suitable for Passover observance.

Critics praise its harmonious balance of fruit and spice, while notes from Wine Musings highlight an oaky perfume and velvety tannins in similar expressions. This Zinfandel exemplifies the rich terroir of Lodi’s old vines, delivering both elegance and robust character to the kosher wine market.
