Winery notes (2022 Vintage)
"Sourced from some of our longtime growing partners in Lodi and Amador Counties, these head trained and dry farmed vines range from 40-60 years old and produce low yields of highly concentrated and complex fruit.

On the nose, vibrant black currant and juniper berry aromas mingle with layers of new leather and black pepper spice. On the palate, the wine showcases a rich medley of ripe blackberry and dried apricots, enhanced by a juicy acidity that keeps it fresh and lively. ere is an earthy complexity with soft, ripe tannins that give way to lingering flavours of berry jam and savoury herb. the aging in American oak barrels imparts a touch of sweetness, along with a toasted edge that deepens the wine’s character without overwhelming its natural fruit-forward nature.

The grapes were sourced from the esteemed Lodi and Amador regions. Aged for 12 months in two-year-old American oak barrels, this wine reveals concentrated fruit flavours that are both bold and balanced."

90/100 Wine Enthusiast (2020 Vintage)
"This California Zin does not disappoint. An elevated acidity gives the wine energy, uplifting the fresh fruit notes of blackberry, black cherry and boysenberry. Well-integrated oak means a subtle dusting of nutmeg, star anise and clove. Tannins are a resolved, chalky texture, adding structural integrity and never distracting."
