Tegan Passalacqua is a winemaking sensation with an intense following: he's the winemaker behind world-renowned Turley Wine Cellars, but his personal project, Sandlands, is what has the wine world buzzing. This old-vine Zinfandel comes from Kirschenmann Vineyard, planted in 1915 in Lodi's white sands. Only 14 barrels made.

Tasting Notes

"Pliant, generous and a little richer than most years: succulent red cherry, cedar, pipe tobacco, incense and licorice building in the glass, with a lovely creamy texture to carry it for years." — Harvest Wine Shop
