Tasting & Tour By APPOINTMENT ONLY
The Zmarzlys own and operate the mountain vineyard. All of our wines are estate bottled, with hand-picked grapes from our own mountain vineyard. The thin soils of our mountain vineyard force the vines to continuously struggle, producing smaller berries with more intense flavors and color. The low yields of 3 tons per acre result in concentrated fruit flavors. The Zmarzly owns and operates the mountain vineyard, employing Greg Graziano and Penny Gadd Coster as winemakers.
