Zialena

Cabernet Sauvignon
Geyserville 2019

Zialena has quickly become one of this year’s greatest discoveries for high-quality, affordable Cabernet Sauvignon. I vividly remember my first taste—it had outshone several $100+ Napa Cabs during our tasting. The winery is an exciting venture led by Lisa and Mark Mazzoni, fourth-generation growers dedicated to sustainable farming. For years, their family vineyard has provided fruit to renowned wineries like Ridge and Jordan, but now it’s their time to showcase the exceptional quality of their grapes.

Zialena is more than a winery; it’s a legacy built on generations of expertise. Mark, a skilled viticulturist who sharpened his craft at elite sites like Bacchus and Vino Farms, brings a deep understanding of grape cultivation. His winemaking prowess was further refined under the guidance of Philippe Melka at Vineyard 29, blending tradition with innovation.

Their commitment to sustainable farming honors the land that nurtures their vines. Located on a historic 120-acre estate in Alexander Valley, Zialena thrives in an extraordinary terroir, with diverse soil types, microclimates, and elevations shaping the unique character of their wines. At an exceptional value of $36, this is a must-have for Cab-lovers.

“The stunning Zialena Geyserville Cabernet Sauvignon 2019 offers a captivating nose of rich black plums bursting alongside wild blueberries and hints of candied cherries. Delicate floral notes of sweet violets emerge, followed by aromas of crushed wet granite that adds complexity. The palate explodes with cascading layers of bright red currants, juicy brambly marionberry, and muddled mixed berries. The rich, concentrated fruits are beautifully balanced by a lively acidity, creating a genuinely harmonious drinking experience. At a surprising value, this Zialena Geyserville Cabernet Sauvignon is an exceptionally satisfying choice for any Cabernet lover. This is a remarkable wine!”
