Antonio Galloni (Vinous):
The 2021 Zinfandel (Lodi), from Kirschenmann, races out of the glass with intense red fruit and floral Zinfandel character. Complex and layered, the 2021 seems to have an extra dimension of nuance compared to previous releases. As always, the aromatics are especially forward here. The 2021 is a wine of pure and total charm.

Sandlands is the personal project of Tegan 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.
Primarily head-trained, dry-farmed and own rooted, the vineyards we work with harken back to California’s roots of exploration, wonder, and hard work.
