Croad

Croad produces wines from California's Central Coast, a region defined by maritime influence and diverse terroir. The winery works primarily with Zinfandel and Rhône varieties—Syrah and Mourvèdre—grapes that thrive in the region's warm days and cooling coastal breezes. The Zinfandel Pure showcases the varietal's dark fruit character and structure. Taranaki Pure blends Mourvèdre and Zinfandel, marrying the savory, earthy notes of the former with the latter's richness. The Silver Fern Series Syrah reflects the winery's engagement with Rhône-style winemaking. Wine Advocate and Wine Enthusiast have rated Croad's releases, reflecting the quality of the portfolio across these core expressions.
