Macchia
Macchia produces wines from California that center on bold, structured varietals. The winery's portfolio emphasizes Zinfandel—a grape that thrives in California's warm climates and yields wines of depth and intensity. The Lodi Native Noma Ranch Zinfandel and Serious Old Vine Zinfandel anchor the range, both drawing on old-vine fruit to build complexity and weight. The Devious Primitivo, made from the southern Italian varietal, rounds out the core offerings. Wine Enthusiast has rated across the portfolio, with the Lodi Native Noma Ranch Zinfandel reaching 92 points. These wines reflect the character of California's Zinfandel tradition: ripe fruit, structured tannins, and the mineral or spice notes that emerge from mature vines.
