Established in 1970, Amador County’s first post-prohibition winery is the largest and most modern of the area. It boasts a new, $12 million, state-of-the-art production facility, complemented by a beautiful, vineyard-ringed, covered patio that can accommodate up to 300 people. Wines include big, rough-hewn Zinfandels, stylish Syrahs and the largest Italian portfolio in the United States.

“Montevia grapes experience sheer joy from their surroundings and pride in the wine they become. Pride and joy suounds like a song title and a recipe for stellar-ness.” Translated as “Land of Gold”, Montevina’s reserve wines, vinified in limited quantities from the winery’s best lots and featuring single vineyard and old-vine zinfandels have won numerous awards and are continually acknowledged as some of the best in the world.

Montevina Amador County Zinfandel 2002 – An accurate expression of Amador history and craftsman style winemaking, 2002 Montevina Amador Zin is bold and intense. You’ll find no manicured hands here, just black pepper and spicy tannin balanced by solid blackberry fruit and cocoa flavors. A nose brimming with cinnamon, menthol, dark chocolate, and red pepper adds complexity and sophistication. Like a cowboy Mom is pleased you brought home, this Zin is hard working enough to get his boots dirty but refined enough to know he needs to leave them at the door.
