Release Marks 22nd Vintage of Iconic Zinfandel from Paso Robles Estate Winery
Paso Robles, CA — Opolo Vineyards today released its 2021 Mountain Zinfandel, marking the 22nd consecutive release of this iconic Paso Robles Zinfandel.
The 2021 vintage exhibits all of the classic hallmarks of Opolo Mountain Zinfandel, most notably a bold, lush palate distinguished by fine structure and vivid fruit flavors that are true to the westside coastal mountains of Paso Robles.
Zinfandel has been at the heart of the Opolo Vineyards experience since the winery was founded in 1999 by Rick Quinn and David Nichols. Zinfandel has been a heritage variety of Paso Robles dating back to the 1800s, and Quinn and Nichols believed that they could produce a definitive Zinfandel that would help drive the modern era of Paso Robles winemaking.
Ever since, the name Mountain Zinfandel has been synonymous with Opolo, reflecting how the Zinfandel grape achieves greatness amid the mountain terroirs of Paso Robles.
In addition to the Mountain Zinfandel, Opolo also produces the popular Summit Creek Zinfandel as well as several Reserve and single-vineyard Zinfandels from heralded sites such as Remo Belli Vineyard. Opolo is also known for its Cabernet Sauvignons, Rhône-style blends and other wines.
