Seghesio Family Vineyards was established in 1895, when Edoardo Seghesio planted his first Zinfandel vineyard in Sonoma County’s Alexander Valley. The focus at Seghesio has always been Zinfandel and Italian varietals.
Dark red in color. 15% ABV. 82% Sonoma County, 10% San Joaquin County and 8% Contra Costa County. Savory nose of black fruits, plums, earth and flowers. Full bodied with ample acidity. Rich, grapey and well balanced. Black cherry, black raspberry, earth and pepper on the palate. The finish is long and supple. Delicious and easy to drink but I preferred the 2022 vintage so buy that while you still can. Always a great value. Best over the next 2-4 years.
My rating: 91 points.
This wine is readily available at retail and will likely be about $20 at Costco. A solid value year in and year out.
Seghesio’s basic Sonoma Zin is the perfect match for burgers. Can take on all the flavors from beefy to briny to cheese, etc brilliantly.
I wholeheartedly agree!
