MCMANIS FAMILY VINEYARDS BARBERA JAMIE LYNN VINEYARD CALIFORNIA 750ML

The Jamie Lynn Vineyard Barbera possesses a beautiful ruby hue and is aromatically engaging with raspberry, black cherry, and clove notes. Medium-bodied with a hint of mocha flavor, the wine lingers on the palate with soft, mellow tannins. Our Barbera is a single-vineyard expression - it comes entirely from the Jamie Lynn Vineyard, which sits in front of the McManis Family Vineyards Winery! The vineyard received this name as Jamie McManis' favorite varietal is Barbera. McManis Family wines are certified sustainable under Lodi Rules standards. The McManis Family Winery is certified sustainable under the California Winegrowing Alliance.

The McManis family has been farming in the northern interior region of California since 1938. Fourth generation farmer Ron McManis, and his wife Jamie, founded McManis Family Vineyards in 1990. From the beginning, their mission was simple: every bottle of McManis Family Vineyards should consist of "quality wine at an honest price". They now farm over 3,600 acres of premium wine grapes from premier growing areas across the state. In 1998, the company designed and built a state-of-the-art winery to produce a range of red and white varietals sourced from ten estate vineyards. All 10 delicious varietals are certified sustainable under Lodi Rules standards and the winery itself is certified under California Sustainable Winegrowing Alliance. McManis is also the keeper of the third smallest American Viticultural Area (AVA) in California. Nestled between the cool confluence of the Stanislaus and San Joaquin rivers, south of Lodi, the River Junction Appellation comprises 1300 acres. The land near the river basin is consistently 2-5 degrees cooler than the surrounding farmlands, combined with the sandy loam soils unique to the area, is ideally suited to growing premium quality grapes. This geographical advantage also provides a more significant diurnal temperature swing - warm days, cooler nights than other vineyards. McManis Family Vineyards grows Chardonnay, Pinot Grigio, Pinot Noir, Viognier and Muscat Canelli in the AVA. View More
