Simple and excellent. Medium sweet and nutty flavors with slight bitterness. Great with not so strong cheeses — 3 years ago
ZD Winery began as a partnership of two aerospace engineers whose initials formed the name of the winery: Norman de Leuze and Gino Zepponi. Ruby with ripe berry fruit aromas and toasty spice. On the palate ripe cherry and blackberry flavors with sweet vanilla oak notes, good balance. Medium+ finish, smooth tannins ending with fruit and cacao tones. Drink now! — 5 years ago
I had 2017 vintage Gino Rinaldi single vineyard and it was excellent. Fruit forward l, but balanced well with oak so not jammy. Delicious! — 6 years ago

Santuvario “Gino” (100% Erbaluce grapes). Orange wine; apricot, tea, minerals, sl tannic. — 7 years ago
Founded in 1969 by two rocket scientists, ZD takes its name not only from its founders, Norman de Leuze and Gino Zepponi, but also from the engineering term Zero Defects. Sleek in its design, but with serious thrust, comparisons could be made to Corison or Montelena Estate, as well as some Left Bank Châteaux. Tart cranberry, cherry, and plum abound with purity, followed by 70% cacao, fresh pine, and damp cedar. Some secondary coconut oil adds a slightly exotic feel to an otherwise old school, savory-styled Napa Cab. Excellent. 93+ — 8 years ago

The 2011 Pora Riserva from Produttori del Barbaresco was exceptional! It was dry, raisiny, heavy on bright currant and cranberry.
This was absolutely phenomenal and brought back beautiful memories of my dear friend Gino as well as our friendship.
Happy Yule, Merry Christmas, and have a Happy New Year 🎊 — 3 years ago
Very full in body, with fruit forward flavor. You can taste the layers evolve from spices and plums with a velvet mouth feel to a slightly cherry finish. Absolutely phenomenal! — 4 years ago
The first wine of our wine progression dinner with Gino and Tia. Such an amazing Pinot from Mnt. Edna that doesn’t taste like a Pinot. So spicy, minerally and rich dark fruit that resembles a high end Southern Rhone. Paired phenomenally with the peach caprese, the varsi salami and the Jarlsberg cheese. — 6 years ago
