THE ZINFANDEL
Zinfandel vines run the length of our estate's West side. They produce a healthly crop of about four tons to the acre. Underground springs nurture our vines and meander down into the Cosumnes River canyon. Zinetta and White Zinfandel come from these vines.

THE PRIMITIVO
Primitivo (named "early ripener" by Italian monks hundreds of years ago) is in the Zinfandel family and therefore grows well in Amador County. The grape is smaller, with a blacker color than Zinfandel, and has a flavor like plum concentrate. We're proud of our Primitivo vines, and forecast many successful vintages.
