In 1886, Edoardo Seghesio left his family vineyards in Piedmont, Italy and arrived in America to begin a new life. He ended up in Sonoma County, where the latest wine industry was flourishing. In 1895, after a decade of experience with the climate and soils, Edoardo chose the western bench of Alexander Valley as his stake in the New World and planted his first vineyard to Zinfandel, a grape variety commonly grown by Italian immigrants, as it resembled the soft, fruit-driven wines of their homeland.

Bright and alluring, the nose bursts with vibrant red raspberry, accented by the rich aroma of Santa Rosa plums and the deep, juicy undertones of fresh blackberries. On the palate, lively acidity dances gracefully, creating an engaging, tactile experience that glides seamlessly into a finish of silky, supple tannins. This vintage is a vivid expression of the 2021 cooler growing season, where crisp, freshly
picked fruit flavors shine, beautifully preserved by cool nights and an extended ripening period, yielding perfectly mature tannins.

This wine pairs nicely with hearty dishes like short ribs, velvety pork belly, or luxurious gnocchi with Gorgonzola.
