OZV (Old Zinfandel Vine) Zinfandel from Lodi, California is crafted from 50 to 100 year old estate-grown vines by fifth-generation family grape-growers under the Oak Ridge Winery umbrella. This wine delivers the classic jammy character that Lodi Zinfandels are known for, with flavors of sweet cherries, blackberries, blueberry jam, and earthy spice, balanced by a robust and lasting finish with mocha and spicy notes.

Created by winemaker Noel Basso, this Zinfandel maintains an approachable alcohol content around 14% ABV, making it softer and easier to drink compared to higher-alcohol Zinfandels. The wine showcases the personality and heritage of its old vines through multiple layers of berry, vanilla, and caramel flavors. OZV has garnered a cult following for its cutting-edge approach to traditional Lodi Zinfandel, offering exceptional value and a great introduction to the style. This 1L format provides more wine per bottle than the standard 750ml size.
