Oakley Road Zinfandel is planted on the same sandy slopes as the Oakley Road Mataro. These vines, planted around 1900, are on their own roots.

Carlo Rossi White Zinfandel is a medium-sweet wine featuring flavors of strawberry and cherry layered with citrus aromas. Notes of juicy red fruit on the palate are balanced by a crisp finish. Enjoy chilled. For forty years, people have been enjoying Carlo Rossi’s unpretentious, fruit forward wine in a jug.

A compelling wine, with expressive blackberry and briary underbrush aromas and refined yet evocative cherry, smoky mint and pepper aromas that linger toward plump tannins.

Fragrant earthiness lies beneath rich black cherry and plum flavors in this full-bodied, deep-colored wine. Mocha, cardamom and baked cherry enhance the wine's refreshing acidity and powerful tannins that find harmony on the lingering finish.

A deep maroon core with a ruby rim, the 2021 Eight Years in the Desert opens with aromas of wild blackberry, pepper, oatmeal raisin cookie, Sequoia forest floor, bay leaf and spices. The entry is broad and opulent with a mid-palate of brambly raspberry, black cherry, ripe blueberry and a hint of cacao. The wine has superb length through the finish with ripe tannins and a close of sweet oak.

For over 35 years, the Herzog and Watts families have worked together to grow spectacular Zinfandel in the Mokelumne River region of Lodi. This Zinfandel is crafted from vines up to 80 years old, capturing intense flavors and rich texture. The wine is balanced and not overly sweet, a style modeled after some of the most historic Late Harvest wines of France.

Optimally ripened with a firm grasp on continuous, slightly juicy, blackberry fruit and showing an uncommon sense of sophistication and crafting at every stop along its way, Green & Red's Heminway Estate Reserve is a deep, beautifully balanced, moderately full–bodied Zin that claims more layered complexity than most. It is a generous, yet carefully measured effort, with great fruity reserve, and, well guaranteed to age famously for no fewer than another half-dozen years, it is so nicely polished that it will shine at the table tonight.
