πŸ‡πŸ”₯ Z-Grand Tasting β€” Zinfandel Advocates & Producers

Join us for one of the boldest, most spirited wine events of the year.

On Saturday, June 6, 2026, we’ll head to Fort Mason Center (Gallery 308) for Z-Grand Tasting, hosted by Zinfandel Advocates & Producers.

Z-Grand is dedicated to the preservation, education, and advocacy of Zinfandel β€” California’s most iconic heritage grape β€” and brings together an outstanding lineup of top producers in a dynamic, city-charged setting.

Expect:
🍷 Benchmark and old-vine Zinfandels
🌿 Stories of historic vineyards and preservation efforts
πŸŒ‰ Indoor + outdoor tasting spaces overlooking the Bay
πŸ‘₯ A lively crowd of growers, winemakers, and serious Zinfandel lovers

This year the event moves to Saturday, making it the perfect kickoff to a weekend of exceptional Zin.

🎟️ Tickets required (purchase individually).
Meet on site at Fort Mason. Exact meeting point shared with attendees.

🎯 Wine Focus

Old vines and power with balance.
Identifying concentration without heaviness, reading alcohol vs structure, and recognizing when bold fruit is supported by acidity, tannin, and age-worthy spine.

Zinfandel can be exuberant β€” but the great ones show restraint beneath the energy. This is a chance to taste that difference side by side.

If you care about California history, vineyard preservation, and expressive, unapologetic wines, this is a must.

🍷 Taste. Learn. Guess. Repeat.
