Black Sears Winery farms both organically and biodynamically high atop Napa’s Howell Mountain. They produce one of the spiciest, concentrated and most intriguing expressions of mountain-grown Zinfandel you’ll find anywhere in the world. Mysterious aromas of allspice play into the dark brooding red fruitiness. Deep meaty notes suggest the complexity of a well-seasoned roast.
Nothing jammy or thin here, just big round fruit with a delicate peppery complexity unwinding through to a long finish. Black Sears vineyards lie nestled among wild oak forests at the very top of Howell Mountain, high above the fogline.At just over 2400 feet, it is the highest vineyard on the mountain and among the loftiest vineyards in all of Napa Valley.
