Zichichi Family Vineyard and Winery is family owned and operated in the heart of zinfandel country in Dry Creek Valley. Zinfandel and Petite Sirah vines were originally planted on St. George root stock in 1920.The vineyard, which is head-pruned and grows in rocky, gravelly soil, begins on a hill and rolls down to Dry Creek. My wife and I purchased the vineyard in 2000 and have been designing and planning the winery since that time. Construction was completed in the summer of 2006 thus helping to ensure the culmination of my dream of raising my family in the wine country. Traditional winemaking techniques are utilized in our wines allowing for the clearest expression of the vineyard. Our wines are of superlative quality and thus require a great deal of sacrifice. The wines are aged 20 months in French and American Oak and blended for the final product. Come visit our new winery complete with a rustic tasting room and enjoy a picnic overlooking the vineyard. – Description from Dragac

  • I love everything about this winery - the wines are great, the owner is amazing, the patio is a lovely place to sit to enjoy the wine. I think this is a must stop on any wine tour in Sonoma (Russian River Valley/Healdsburg area).

    Enjoyed the soft punch it had. I usually refer to a red zin as being powerful enough to punch you in the face. This one was a little softer. Read More

    After reading what this site had to say about my 2001 bottle of St.Francis Zin, I could hardly wait to uncork it last night! This would be the first time I had ever actually tasted, purchased & let a bottle of fine wine sit for 8 long years, and it was worth every day of waiting. What a smooth berry delite to behold. Enjoy your bottle within ... Read More

  • One of my best friends & my wife and I are going to be tasting down there on Memorial Day weekend this year (I know, terrible time to taste) and was wondering if anyone could point me in the direction of some boutique wineries in the Sonoma area.
