Evangelho Vineyard Zinfandel | Precedent

Evangelho is one of the great ancient Zinfandel vineyards, planted in 1890 on the great California Delta, on granite and quartz sands blown from the Sierra Nevada over millennia. This ‘true’ field blend has exotic old-vine intensity, but balances the power from the California sun with the purity and lift of the Oakley sands.
