Zinfandel

At 2,600 feet, the Mariah Vineyards is the highest site in the AVA and home to 14 acres of prolific Zinfandel vines. ““The coolest of the hot areas is what we were looking for. No guts, no glory,” laughs proprietor Dan Dooling, who purchased this spectacular site with his wife Vicki in 1978 and planted the first vines in 1981.
