Old-vine Cinsault from Lodi, made by one of California's true new-wave icons. Tegan Passalacqua's Sandlands project hunts down forgotten heritage vineyards - own-rooted, dry-farmed, often a century old - and bottles them with a light, energetic touch that's become a Flatiron favorite since we opened our doors. Cinsault is a rare, underappreciated grape in California, prized here for its juicy, perfumed, low-tannin charm and its love of a slight chill. The 2024 is fresh out of the gate, bursting with bright fruit and aromatics, and best enjoyed in its youth. Quantities of Sandlands wines are always tiny, so don't overthink it.

Antonio Galloni

"The 2024 Cinsault (Lodi) emerges from Bechtold, the oldest Cinsault vineyard in the world. Black cherry, gravel, incense, tobacco, licorice, lavender and espresso give the 2024 its somber, almost brooding personality. This potent, muscular Cinsault needs time to be at its finest, but it is seriously impressive, even in the early going." —Antonio Galloni
