The story behind it

The maker

Sutter Home was established by the Trinchero family when they migrated from New York to Napa Valley, purchasing the historic Sutter Home Winery. They revolutionized the American wine industry in the 1970s by introducing White Zinfandel and have since grown into one of the country's most recognized family-owned wineries.

How it is made

Since 1948, Sutter Home has been crafting accessible and enjoyable wines in the heart of California. The winemaker carefully selects grapes from premier California vineyards to ensure a consistent, consumer-friendly style year after year.
