Marietta "OVR" Old Vine Red Lot 75

Winemaker Notes

Affectionately known as “OVR,” Marietta’s Old Vine Red is a proprietary red wine made to replicate the field blends of the old vineyards in Sonoma and Mendocino counties. A groundbreaking combination of grape varieties and multiple vintages first produced in 1982, this wine has blazed the path for red blends for decades. With an historic underground following, it is one of the longest lasting and best known red blends produced today. Predominantly comprised of Zinfandel, Old Vine Red combines pure fruit, a supple mouth feel and a rich, solid structure.

This Zinfandel-based blend opens with bright plum fruit and evolves into a dark, focused profile with briar patch and black tea. Medium-bodied with sweet spice, velvety tannins, and vibrant energy, it pairs effortlessly with any meal or occasion.

70% Zinfandel,15% Syrah, 5% Petite Sirah, 5% Merlot, 3% Grenache, 2% Barbera

Critical Acclaim

91pts Robert Parker
The NV Old Vine Red Lot 75 has a medium ruby-purple color is scented of red and black plums, raspberry candy, powdered sugar, prosciutto and floral potpourri. The medium-bodied palate is rounded and bright with understated, earth-laced fruit and a softly spicy finish. That herbal edge and juicy acidity make this wonderfully easy to drink!
