Hattan rice dates back to the 1800s when the Hattanso rice variety was mixed by private growers. Following in the early 1900s, the Hiroshima prefecture started creating varieties of Hattan rice that would be more resistant to disease, produce high yields, and also craft a more excellent shinpaku. Different varieties of the Hattan rice were bred through the decades, and the results included stronger varieties that were more resistant to disease. The breeding also introduced varieties more ideal for sake brewing because of their ability to absorb water. Hiroshima Hattan features a signature delicate taste that is deliciously fragrant. The Kamoizumi Shuzo brewery in the Hiroshima prefecture crafts quality sakes from the Hiroshima Hattan variety. With junmai sake production to genshu nama, this distinct brewery showcases traditional methods with modern innovation. The Kazoizumi sake is truly unique sake that features the taste of fall leaves, mushrooms, and showcases a prominent smoothness. This sake is best when warm and pairs beautifully with fois gras or duck. It also blends nicely with dishes that feature mushrooms and other root vegetables. At the temperature of 105 degrees, the Kazoizumi is prominent sake from Timeless Wines that any wine connoisseur will love.

After working with the fruit for over a decade, Turkey is proud to present the first single-vineyard bottling for Turley from the Del Barba Vineyard. Contra Costa is a delta where the San Joaquin and Sacramento rivers meet, and these head-trained vines are planted in deep dehli blow sand, made up of decomposed granite coming down from the Sierra Mountains. The resulting wine embodies the best the delta has to offer: silken textures, ultra fine tannin, and dark saline fruits.
Review:
Sourced from head-trained vines planted in 1980 on sandy soils, the 2022 Zinfandel Del Barba Vineyard is a light, elegant and approachable expression of Turley's substantial Zinfandel collection. Medium ruby in color, it is initially coiled and opens slowly into a bright, inviting nose with aromas of Earl Grey tea, licorice and red cherries, albeit with slightly less definition and clarity than found in other bottlings. The palate is medium-bodied, deeply red-fruited and lined with spicy, floral accents. The finish is long and perfumed, framed by clay-textured tannins and lifted, juicy acidity harnessed with an understated elegance.
