Carol Shelton

North Coast Zinfandel specialist rooted in old-vine California fruit.

Carol Shelton draws from California's North Coast, a region celebrated for its old-vine Zinfandel. The winery's portfolio centers on this varietal, with the Mancini Vineyard Old Vine Zinfandel, Tawny Monga Old Vine Zinfandel, and Bacchi Reserve Zin Old Vine representing its core offerings. These wines have been assessed by Wine Enthusiast and Wine Advocate. Old Vine Zinfandel, sourced from mature plantings, typically expresses concentrated fruit, structured tannins, and the mineral character that defines the North Coast terroir. The winery's focus on single-vineyard and reserve expressions reflects a commitment to the distinctive character each site imparts.
