A Rebellious Blend with Depth

19 Crimes Cali Red is a bold blend of California-grown Petite Sirah, Zinfandel, and Merlot. Each varietal brings something unique to the table:

• Petite Sirah delivers a deep purple hue and notes of ripe black fruit.

• Zinfandel adds layers of juicy berry flavor and spice.

• Merlot brings structure, softness, and a smooth, elegant finish.

This combination results in a beautifully balanced wine with big flavor, rich texture, and a slight touch of sweetness. Crafted in the sun-soaked vineyards of Lodi, California, Cali Red embodies the essence of its warm, vibrant origin.

The Story Behind the Label

Each wine honors these historical figures and their spirit of resilience. With Cali Red, that rebellious history takes on a modern twist with the help of Snoop Dogg—a cultural icon known for challenging norms and defining generations.

The label itself tells a story of defiance, creativity, and breaking barriers. Just like the wine inside, it’s anything but ordinary.
