Acorn
Acorn produces wines from Russian River Valley, the cool-climate heart of Sonoma County's North Coast. The winery's portfolio centers on Zinfandel and Syrah—varieties that thrive in the region's maritime influence and diurnal temperature swings. Alegría Vineyards Heritage Zinfandel anchors the range, a wine that captures the varietal's dark fruit and structured tannins. The Axiom Syrah follows, expressing the elegance and peppery complexity Syrah achieves in this terroir. Beyond single varietals, Acorn explores blended expressions: the Alegría Vineyards Medley draws from seven grapes—Zinfandel, Syrah, Cinsaut, Cabernet Franc, Sangiovese, Viognier, and Muscatel—a composition that reflects the winery's experimental approach to Russian River Valley fruit. Wine Enthusiast and Wine Advocate have rated these releases, affirming their technical merit and balance.
