Puccioni Vineyards is committed to making distinctive Zinfandel and Petite Sirah from the Puccioni Ranch in the Dry Creek Valley of Sonoma County. Founded by our Great Grandfather in 1904, our wines are made using 100-year-old vines and the knowledge passed down from our family’s generations of winegrape growers and winemakers. Our style is to “let the vineyard speak” by producing concentrated wines in a complex and rustic style that exhibit characters of the site.
