Zucca Mountain Vineyards
Zucca Mountain Vineyards operates in California's Sierra Foothills, a region defined by elevation, diurnal temperature swings, and a tradition of bold red wines. The winery's portfolio centers on Sangiovese and Zinfandel—grapes that thrive in the foothills' warm days and cool nights. The Sangiovese expresses the variety's characteristic structure and acidity, while the Zinfandel captures the region's ripe fruit character. Sorprendere, a blend of Zinfandel, Barbera, and Shiraz, demonstrates the winery's approach to combining Mediterranean and Old World varieties in a single expression.
