| Description: | The Sebastiani's were pioneers in Sonoma, paving the way for the area to become known as Wine Country. Great-Grandfather Samuele, began with bulk wine, Grandfather August produced and bottled jug wines, Father Don championed individual varietal wines. Today Don August Sebastiani, Jr. focuses on highlighting a specific appellation - Sonoma - and showcases the quality and character of this region, drawing on inspriation from his Grandfathers' can-do spirit. The name Sivas is the modern-day Turkish derivation of 'Sebasteia', the city names for Emperor Augustus 2000 years ago, and the historical origin of the Sebastiani surname. The Russian River appellation is best known for its Chardonnay and Pinot Noir, but 9% of its vineyard acreage is planted to Zinfandel. The cool climate that makes Russian River so unique also has significant impact on Zinfandel, producing a style that has greater natural acidity than Zinfandels from surrounding regions. Combined with the region's alluvial soils and hilly landscape, this small amount of Zinfandel tends to express greater freshness and finesse, rather than the big, bold structure of Zins from Dry Creek Valley and Lodi. |
