Description

The vineyard name comes from the view of Mount Diablo in the distance. When the sun sets it looks like Mount Diablo is on fire. This vineyard block comes from the original family clone from the late 1800s. 9×9 spacing and sandy soil. Always has been sent to Napa producers that blend with other zinfandel grapes.
