Sandlands, Cinsault, Lodi, California 2022

The Sandlands Cinsault shows beautiful violets, pomegranate, and lavender, with a granitic, loamy finish. 

Sandlands is the personal project of Tegan and Olivia Passalacqua (of Turley Vineyards). The line-up encompasses the forgotten classic California varieties, primarily grown in decomposed granite (sand), from regions and vineyards that have been farmed for many generations but have remained the outliers of California viticulture.
