Ironstone Vineyards Old Vine Zinfandel

Ironstone Vineyards is a well-known American winery located in the Sierra Foothills of California. The brand history dates back to 1948 when John Kautz, a young farmer, founded the family agricultural operation in Lodi. Over the decades, the family transitioned from vegetable farming to premium viticulture, establishing Ironstone Vineyards in Murphys, California, featuring massive underground wine caverns and extensive estate vineyards.

This specific Old Vine Zinfandel is produced from grapes grown in the Lodi region, a historic wine-growing area prized for its sandy soils and Mediterranean climate. The manufacturing process, including fermentation and aging, occurs in California under the direct supervision of the Kautz family. Today, the brand remains an independent, family-owned enterprise, with the Kautz family maintaining full control over production and global distribution.
