Kokomo
Kokomo produces wines from Dry Creek Valley, a region in Sonoma County known for its warm days, cool nights, and gravelly soils. The winery focuses on Cabernet Sauvignon, Zinfandel, and Grenache—grapes that thrive in the valley's distinctive terroir. Ruth's Vineyard Winemaker's Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon and Pauline's Vineyard Winemaker's Reserve Zinfandel represent the winery's core offerings, with both wines rated by Wine Enthusiast and Wine Advocate. A Grenache rounds out the portfolio. Dry Creek Valley's reputation for structured reds and its maritime-influenced climate create conditions for wines with depth and balance. Kokomo's selection reflects the valley's strengths: ripe fruit, tannin structure, and the mineral character that comes from the region's volcanic and alluvial soils.
