Gnarly Head

California whites and Zinfandel defined by varietal clarity and approachable character.

Gnarly Head produces wines from California that emphasize varietal expression and approachability. The winery's portfolio centers on white wines and Zinfandel, with the Unoaked Viognier and Sauvignon Blanc leading the range. Both whites showcase the aromatic and mineral-driven character typical of their varieties—the Viognier offering stone fruit and floral notes without oak influence, the Sauvignon Blanc delivering crisp acidity and herbaceous complexity. The Black Old Vine Zin draws from mature vineyard material, capturing the dark fruit intensity and spice that define California Zinfandel. Decanter and Wine Enthusiast have rated across the portfolio, reflecting consistent quality in execution. The winery's approach favors clean winemaking that lets fruit and terroir speak directly, making these wines suitable for everyday drinking and food pairing alike.
