Located in the Rutherford district of Napa Valley, ZD Wines organically produces grapes on a 36 acre stretch. It's operated by the deLeuze family with Robert deLeuze, CEO/Winemaster at the helm. ZD Wines goes the extra mile to preserve the global environment through its local practices. It employees 712 solar panels for powering up its production line. And on that note, Robert employees a staff equally aligned with his green practices who drive environmentally-friendly vehicles. Robert recently joined the electric revolution with a new car, which derives solar-generated electricity, as well.
The winery's signature varietal, Carneros Pinot Noir, celebrates its 5th decade in 2009. Its bouquet of black cherry, rhubarb, clove and spice and its dark ruby color make it a complex wine, which is matured in french oak barrels for 10 months. ZD Wines was established in 1969 and the family continues to carry a hands-on approach to winemaking. Its tenure in the winemaking business has garnered ZD Wines many awards as well as the preferred wine for table settings at the White House for several administrations. ZD was named Winery of the Year by Wine & Spirits in 1997.
