About Twisted Vine Winery
Twisted Vine Winery is named for the gnarled, twisted trunks of old Lodi Zinfandel vines — the characteristic shape of head-pruned vines after decades of growth, their trunks twisted and thickened into sculptural forms that declare their age more directly than any vintage label. The twisted vine is the visual evidence of time: wood that has grown and hardened through enough seasons that its shape records the accumulation of years.
The North Cherry Road estate produces Zinfandel, Tempranillo, and Petite Sirah from Lodi estate vineyard sources where old head-pruned vines have developed the twisted trunk architecture that names the winery. The Lodi sub-appellation's combination of deep alluvial soils and hot summers creates conditions for old-vine Zinfandel of the concentrated, high-alcohol character that the variety's California expression is known for.
