Region: Contra Costa County, California 
Blend: Cinsault, Carignane, Zinfandel
Year: 2021  

Winemaker Notes: 

"12 barrels and two 500 liter puncheons produced. An intentional blend of three varieties and three vineyards in three equal parts, this wine is composed of Cinsault from the Bechthold Vineyard (1886), Carignane from Spenker Ranch (1900) and Zinfandel from Kirschenmann Vineyard (1915), our home ranch in Victor. Black cherry, orange zest, black tea, bright, velvety finish. 

Sandlands is the personal project of Tegan and Olivia Passalacqua. The line-up encompasses the forgotten classic California varieties, primarily grown in decomposed granite (sand), from regions and vineyards that have been farmed for many generations but have remained the outliers of California viticulture." 

Alcohol: 13.2%
