Seghesio Family Vineyards Zinfandel

Crimson Wine Group says Seghesio Family Vineyards traces back to 1895 in Healdsburg, California, and is part of its winery portfolio. That 1895 dates the winery's founding, not the age of anything in the bottle in front of you.

We do not have a shopper rating for this wine, so it comes without a score of its own; the wines we have rated show a 4.71 median. In our September 2026 checks, the low end came to $21.99 across the eight stores we found it in.

The grape is Zinfandel, which our grape research places in California going back many years. That research says it can appear as a red, as the pink wine sold as White Zinfandel, or as one part of a blend. Regional authorities link a fuller body to fruit that ripens further, and add that vine age and picking time can move the outcome a good deal.

Those same September 2026 checks put the high end at $31.99. For taste, regional authorities keep it general: ripe berry and plum with a bit of spice, filling out as the fruit gets riper.

Seghesio's own site describes the company's broader Zinfandel program rather than this specific bottling: the winery, based in Healdsburg in Sonoma County, traces its Zinfandel roots to 1895 and calls itself “125 years in the wine business”. Its top tier requires vines of at least 50 years to earn the “Old Vine” name on the label, and the company's stated aim across its Zinfandel range is wine that is “bold, complex, age-worthy” and meant for sharing. We were not able to confirm this specific “Family Vineyards Zinfandel” listing against Seghesio's current lineup, which is organized under names such as Sonoma, Old Vine and Cortina rather than “Family Vineyards”; the closest match on price and distribution is the entry-tier Sonoma Zinfandel, but because the SKU is not confirmed, we are not importing that wine's specific alcohol level, vintage or score here.

Our call: reasonable if the Seghesio name and Sonoma County history are enough on their own; 1895 roots and a self-described 125 years in the wine business carry real weight even without bottle-specific detail. Pass if you want a tech sheet or critic score matched to the exact bottle in your cart; we could not confirm this listing against Seghesio's current Sonoma, Old Vine and Cortina lineup closely enough to vouch for a specific alcohol level or score, and no shopper rating has reached our record either.
