A bold and brooding Petite Sirah blend from Lodi
Gnarly Head Authentic Black is a bold, dark-fruited blend led by Petite Sirah, delivering intense aromas of black cherry, black licorice, and vanilla. The palate is rich and concentrated, offering deep flavors of juicy blackberry and chocolate framed by robust tannins.



Gnarly Head was launched in 2004 by DFV Wines when winemakers set out to make a robust zinfandel from Lodi's historic, gnarled old vines. Inspired by these free-standing bush vines, the brand expanded its portfolio to create a range of bold, structured wines with an rebellious spirit.
Crafted by Gnarly Head Wines in Lodi, California, this blend is anchored by old vine Petite Sirah which thrives in the sandy soils of the region. The grapes are selected from select family-owned vineyards and aged with French and American oak to enhance the wine's powerful structure.
