About Cinsault

Are you ready to experience a new sensation in the wine industry? Get ready to be blown away by the unique flavors and aromas of Cinsault - a grape variety with a rich history in the Southern Rhône region of France. Now, this exceptional grape has found a new home in the Lodi AVA of California and is taking the wine industry by storm.

At Christopher Cellars, we are excited to announce the release of our new Cinsault Sprague Family Vineyard on March 4th, 2022, priced at $30.00. Our winemakers have produced a wine that reflects its sense of place, with bright acidity and smooth tannins. It underwent mixed fermentation of whole berry and whole cluster fermentation, and was aged in neutral French oak barrels for three months before bottling in January.

Cinsault is a versatile grape variety that pairs perfectly with lighter dishes such as roasted chicken, grilled fish, and pasta with tomato-based sauces. It's a grape that can add complexity and depth to wine blends or can be enjoyed as a varietal wine, showcasing its unique characteristics. With its ability to thrive in the hot and dry climate of Lodi and its resistance to disease and pests, it's no wonder that Cinsault is becoming increasingly popular among winemakers in the region.

Whether you're a wine connoisseur or just starting your wine journey, you won't want to miss out on the opportunity to try the exciting new Cinsault wines from Lodi. Come to Christopher Cellars and experience the magic of this exceptional grape variety. Order your bottle today and join us in celebrating the release of our new Cinsault Sprague Family Vineyard.``
