Description

Seghesio Family Vineyards, Zinfandel Sonoma County

Our Sonoma Zinfandel makes a strong first impression with a bouquet of cedar, spice, and sun-ripened blackberries. Bold and richly textured on the palate with an intensity and purity of fruit reflected in notes of wild blueberries, plum, and black currants. A light dusting of tannins provides structure and a long finish that is buoyed by fresh juicy acidity.

In many ways, the story of Seghesio Family Vineyards is the Sonoma County wine industry’s story. It begins with the vision and determination of immigrants and continues through Prohibition’s hardship and the challenges of survival in the 20th and 21st centuries. It is the story of one family’s adaptation and reinvention, not once but multiple times. Most of all, it is the story of the values we hold dear: heritage, tradition, and community. Through five generations and over 120 years, Seghesio Family Vineyards has been proud to be part of the vibrant history and fabric of Sonoma County.

Seghesio Family Vineyards was established in 1895 when Italian immigrant and winemaker Edoardo Seghesio planted his first Zinfandel vineyard in what is now Seghesio’s Home Ranch Vineyard in Sonoma County’s Alexander Valley.

Edoardo and his wife Angela continued to tend their vineyards through Prohibition and were approximately 100 wineries to survive that era. Post-prohibition, Seghesio was a key supplier of grapes and bulk wine to large California wineries.

The modern era saw fourth-generation Ted Seghesio make the first wines under the Seghesio label in the early 1980s. Under the leadership and guidance of Ted and his cousin Pete, Seghesio Family Vineyards has become renowned for exceptional Zinfandels and Italian varietals.

In 2011 Seghesio Family Vineyards joined Crimson Wine Group, a company committed to crafting benchmark wines from premier growing regions. Today, winemaker Andy Robinson is at the helm of the cellar. Having worked alongside Ted Seghesio for nearly two decades, Andy became Head Winemaker in 2015. Demonstrating excellence and leadership in winegrowing, fifth-generation Seghesio Family member Ned Neumiller serves as Grower Relations & Viticulture Manager. Ned is a 2018 recipient of Sonoma County’s “Outstanding Young Person in Agriculture” award and serves on the board of directors for Winegrowers of Dry Creek Valley.

Nice deep purple in the glass. Dark fruit and baking spices on the nose. Palate has familiar Zin peppery spice. Smooth and well balanced. Definitely a wine to share with friends!
