Tasting Notes
DownloadVINEYARDS
Grapes are sourced from premium vineyards throughout California, selecting parcels which are most expressive. Mendocino County is celebrated for Zinfandel, so we consider these grapes an essential component to the blend. These Mendocino vineyards are located on bench land from Redwood Valley south to the Sanel Valley, a distance of 26 miles, and range in age from 9-45 years old.
BARRELS & AGING
1000 Stories begins its aging like most Zinfandels: in wine barrels. Then, the tradition transitions to innovation. Bob selects a combination of new and used bourbon barrels to complete the aging process. Each batch is crafted individually and is unique in its final profile. Aging in bourbon barrels imparts characteristics of charred vanilla and dried herbs.

The Cabernet Sauvignon grapes were carefully selected primarily from Mendocino County and San Luis Obispo County. This rich, full-flavored Cabernet Sauvignon expresses a blend of select Cabernet lots; flavors of cherry, currant, graphite, charred vanilla, and dried herbs.
BARRELS & AGING
Each lot began its journey in traditional French and American oak wine barrels. Then, in true 1000 Stories fashion, winemaker Bob Blue finished a small portion of the wine in new bourbon barrels, with the balance aged in neutral bourbon barrels. This unique barrel aging process gave to this wine its hints of burnt sugar, vanilla, dried herbs, and even a touch of smokiness.
