Healdsburg, Calif.—Seghesio Family Vineyards announced its acquisition of the 24-acre property known as the Montafi Ranch Vineyard located just outside the city limits of Santa Rosa, Calif., in the Russian River AVA. The property is home to 13 acres of old-vine Zinfandel planted in 1916. The purchase brings the Seghesio’s total acreage to more than 300 acres. Seghesio will continue to sell some of the grapes from the vineyard to Carlisle Winery & Vineyards for its Montafi Ranch Zinfandel. “We are thrilled to add this old-vine Zinfandel site to our collection,” said winemaker Ted Seghesio in a press release. “Old-vine Zinfandel is a rarity in the Russian River Valley today, which makes the remaining vineyards treasures.”
