California
DeLoach Vineyards proudly crafts wines that capture the essence of California. Our Certified Sustainable California wines reflect our belief that responsible farming creates better wines, and a better future.
Story
With Zinfandel thriving in many regions of California, the grapes for this wine are sourced from vineyards in the Lodi region, where warm days and cooling Delta breezes help preserve natural acidity and maintain balance in the fruit. We work with a single grower partner, ensuring consistency in our winemaking. The vineyards are (CSWA) certified sustainable, and the sandy, loamy soils provide excellent drainage while retaining enough moisture to support healthy vine growth.

Tasting Notes
A true expression of California Zinfandel, this wine showcases vibrant fruit in an energetic style. Aged with just a touch of neutral oak to support the fruit, it opens with lifted aromas of red cherry, blackberry, and dried raspberry. Medium-bodied and well-balanced on the palate, bright red fruit flavors are layered with touches of plum, cocoa, and warm spice. Refined tannins and fresh acidity provide structure, leading to a smooth, elegant finish.
