Too late, we are SOLD OUT!
This wine is so damn cool...own-rooted on forty-foot-deep banks of beach sand alongside the Sacramento River Delta, Evangelho is one of the coolest old vineyards in California. Planted in the 1890s, it is now wedged between a PG&E plant, a Burger King, and a motel that rents rooms by the hour. A field-blend of Zinfandel, Carignane, Mourvedre, and others, this is flat out head-spinning!
