Bold and juicy Lodi blend with a spicy finish

This bold red blend opens with rich, jammy aromas of black cherry, raspberry, and toasted vanilla. The palate is juicy and full-bodied, framed by soft tannins and a lingering, spicy finish.

The story behind it

The maker

Gnarly Head was launched in 2004 by Delicato Family Wines, a family-owned winery established in 1924. The brand was inspired by the gnarled, free-standing old vines of Lodi, which have resisted modern trellising to produce incredibly robust and flavorful fruit.

How it is made

Sourced primarily from Lodi, California, this blend is crafted from older, head-trained vines that yield smaller, more concentrated berries. The winery utilizes traditional fermentation techniques followed by oak aging to develop its signature rich texture and complex spice notes.
