The Triangle Chapter of the American Wine Society Presents

Zinfandel Wine Tasting

Join us on Sunday, November 16, 2025

3:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m.

Presenter: Fred Brack

Zinfandel (or "Zin", as it is affectionately known in the United States) is a dark-skinned red wine grape variety widely cultivated in California. It arrived in the Americas from Europe in the early 19th Century and was an immediate success in both Napa and Sonoma counties, which remain its strongholds today.

Red Zinfandel has risen to become the signature wine of the U.S., not due to the quality of wine it produces, but because it is as close to an "American" variety as vinifera vines get.

Join us in November to Zin with us as we taste six California Zinfandel wines, from a Michael David to Ridge Lyton Springs. We hope you will find several you want to order in the future.
