“Lodi has always been the backbone of California wine history…” Which is why “X” marks the spot is at the center of Lodi’s new branding campaign

By pwenzel

Celebrated wine writer, author and educator Elaine Chukan Brown and Stuart Spencer, the executive director of the Lodi Winegrape Commission, join me in the studio for a very special episode of The Vine Guy. They discuss everything Lodi, from the multi-generational farmers who have grown grapes in the area since the mid-1800s to the new innovations taking place in the vineyards. There are a few surprises along the way, including a stunning Albariño and a Cinsault made from vines over 100 years old. Drink in this educational conversation with Elaine and Stuart.

Wines tasted in this episode:

2018 Oak Farm Vineyards Albariño, Lodi, California

2017 Michael David Winery Ancient Vines Cinsault, Lodi, California

2018 St. Amant Winery Marian’s Vineyard Ancient Vines Zinfandel, Lodi, California
