Nalle Winery Has It All On THE VARIETAL SHOW!

Leave a comment

Let’s talk about cult wine in Dry Creek Valley with a visit to Nalle Winery! THE VARIETAL SHOW is honored to be hosted by Lee & April Nalle, on the 40th Year Anniversary for both the winery and AVA. Their unique style of Zin, and other Reds, come from some very old gnarly vines, and we taste the 2021 Zinfandel, Dry Creek Valley & 2020 Ranch Red, Dry Creek Valley for an amazing sampling!
