When Lodi and Zinfandel come together, you know you're in for a treat. This winter-ready red opens with gorgeous, lifted aromas of wet earth and scrub brush, intertwined with hints of peaches and cream, red fruit like rhubarb, and rich black currant. Full-bodied and complex, it dazzles with silken red berry flavors, refreshingly tart acidity, stony minerality, and a touch of nuanced baking spices.

Perfect for cozy evenings or transitioning to grilling season, this Zinfandel shines with a peppercorn-crusted Ribeye—and don’t hesitate to splash a bit into your pan for a flavorful finishing touch. Whether shared with friends during a tasting or savored solo, this wine is an expressive delight from first sip to last.

From the same talented winemaker behind Lot 951, this is a different expression of Zinfandel that showcases his mastery. With a résumé that includes crafting iconic wines in Oak Knoll, Kenwood, and a stint with Orin Swift Cellars, he knows Zinfandel like few others can.

Lot 930 is pure magic, sourced from 50-year-old vines in one of California’s premier Zinfandel regions. Lodi’s old vines are renowned for consistently bringing out the varietal’s best, and this wine is no exception. At just $15 a bottle, we recommend starting with at least six bottles—it’s irresistible now and will be even more expressive with a year of patience.

Bursting with notes of deep red fruits, layered with peaches and cream, Lot 930 is a perfect companion for hearty winter meals or smoky barbecues come grilling season. Whether you’re sipping during a quiet evening or sharing with friends, this Zinfandel will make every occasion a standout.
