Focus on Zinfandel
The Dry Creek Valley
Eric Cinnamon
 
 
Sonoma County’s Dry Creek Valley is affectionately known by Zin aficionados as the "Zin Zone" because of its remarkable climate and history of making great wines. Zinfandel grapes need a long, warm and steady growing season to achieve full potential on the vine. The Dry Creek Valley, where much of Rancho Zabaco’s fruit is harvested, offers just that – year in and year out.

Rancho Zabaco’s Chiotti and Stefani ranches are located in the Dry Creek Valley. The 60 acre Chiotti Vineyard is celebrated for its flavorful layers of blueberry and black raspberry fruit. The Stefani Vineyard enjoys a reputation for wines with intense flavors of cassis and blackberry.
