About Wine > Varietals > Zinfandel

California's very own grape variety, although it seems to be the same as southern Italy's Primitivo grape. It produces wines that range in style from pink, sweet and frothy (confusingly called White Zinfandel) to serious, full-bodied, weighty reds stuffed with blackcurrant fruit.
A little is also made into a fortified version.

Late harvest Zinfandel grapes.
Perfect pair: Cuban herbed chicken with saffron rice.

History of Laithwaites

It all began back in 1969, after student summers working in Bordeaux vineyards, and lugging wine home on the train. I and five winegrowers then bought a Ford van with the idea of me bringing their 'real' wines directly to customers in the UK.
