From the producer: The Gianoli family immigrated from Prata, Italy in 1882 and soon after planted 20 acres of Zinfandel. The old winery and tavern they built is still onsite and the old vines made it past the 100-year mark before being replaced in 1993. Grown in sand and on their own root stock, Gianoli Ranch makes a classic Zinfandel with aromas of allspice and berry compote. Medium weight on the palate with black and red fruit, floral notes and brambly earth. The wine finishes with subtle tannin framed by striking acidity.
