2022 Mischievous, Old Vine Zinfandel, Lodi
Best Seller!
Lodi Appellation grows a wide variety of grapes, but Zinfandel is the undisputed King. It is not hard to find 50, 60, 70 even 100-year-old vineyards dotting the landscape. It is from these grapes that some of California’s Best Zinfandels are produced. This Mischievous blend uses multiple Old Vine Zinfandel vineyards that, when combined, produce the classic, fruit-forward characteristics that are the centerpiece of all great Lodi wines. Just a touch of Petite Sirah adds structure and increases its complexity. Aging in small oak barrels creates a soft vanilla finish making it a very food-friendly wine that can be enjoyed daily with everything from rich pasta to a juicy barbecued steak.
