A look at our wonderful Katushas’ Vineyard in Lodi. Planted in 1915 the vineyard was nearly torn out in 2014 but we managed to prevent that from happening and have spent the last decade-plus nursing it back to health. Now farmed to organic standards it is non-till with integrated grazing and is one of the healthiest and best Zinfandel vineyards in the appellation. And the w**e, as Casey points out, is vibrant and delicious and not at all what people think of as typical Lodi Zin. Thanks to Erik Castro for coming out for a very early pick to capture the footage.
