Bright purple in color with expressive red fruit, floral aromas and a touch of spice. The wine is medium to full bodied, weighty and smooth, like a bowling ball on a silk pillow. Lodi is one of California's oldest commercial vine growing regions, dating back to the 1850s. Walk through the vineyards today and you will stumble upon thickly twisted 100 year-old vines that pre-date prohibition.
