Korean BBQ

having spent the last several years tasting through the cellars of countless vintners and private collectors in Napa Valley and beyond

After fermentation we matured the wine for six months in 300 litre barrels

The palate is silky and fine

perched several hundred feet above the valley

2014 Joseph Swan Bastoni Vineyard Zinfandel Yarra Valley Korean BBQLocated in what I refer to as the Riebli Valley, just a few miles east of Highway 101, this sight has been farmed by the Bastoni family since 1906. Martha Bastoni and her husband, Russ Messanna currently farm it. Although the old vines are gone, the replants are going strong and are meticulously cared for. And even though we have only been making wine from this vineyard for a short time, it exhibits what I have come to view as a classic Bastoni nose
