He crafts about 500 cases of Pinot Noir and Syrah in an urban winery in Santa Rosa and his 2006 vintage wines have been impressive. Tasting by appointment. The wines are offered through a newsletter and there is limited retail distribution.
Articles About Zepaltas WinesReviewed Wines2007 Zepaltas Sonoma Coast Pinot Noir 14.5% alc., 107 cases, $39. An appellation blend to be released in February, 2009. · A chameleon of a nose, changing constantly in the glass. Black cherry, raspberry, oak char and spice, Provencal herbs, white pepper and a little barnyard. Redder fruits on the palate including currants and cranberries with a hint of oak and roasted tomato. Bright and crisp with a slight citric tang on the refreshing finish. My family gulped the rest of this bottle down in nothing flat. Reviewed November 17, 2008 ARTICLE »
