Robert Biale VineyardsRobert Biale Vineyards is the most heritage-Zinfandel-committed and Italian-immigrant-farming-personally-rooted wine estate in the Napa Valley.
✓
The Biale familyThe Biale family — Italian immigrants who established their Big Ranch Road Napa farm in the 1930s and developed the Zinfandel planting program that would eventually become the Black Chicken Vineyard designation — represent three generations of continuous Italian-heritage Napa Valley farming that is among the most personally resonant and community-rooted family wine stories in the valley.
✓
The Black ChickenThe Black Chicken Vineyard name — a reference to the bootlegging-era code that Aldo Biale's customers used when ordering Zinfandel from the family farm during the Prohibition era — connects the Biale family's current wine program directly to the most colorful and personally family-heritage-specific chapter in the Napa Valley's wine history.
