New to Our Markets: Limited-Edition Journeyman Red Wines
Kowalski's is proud to introduce two limited-edition red wines. They are barreled, blended and bottled exclusively for Kowalski's by acclaimed Sonoma County winemaker Pete Seghesio. Pete's family winemaking history dates back to the 1890s on both his mother's and father's side. Click here to learn more about Pete and his winemaking heritage.
Journeyman 2022 Russian River Valley Pinot Noir
Journeyman Pinot Noir is made by Pete Seghesio using grapes grown on Zio Tony Ranch, one of the Russian River Valley's finest vineyard sites. This is handcrafted wine in every sense, with production that rarely exceeds 150 cases per year. The pedigree is evident in the glass, showing layers of complexity and refinement. Its deep flavors and polished texture make it ideal for that special dinner.
We like pairing this Pinot Noir with Kowalski's Signature Finocchiona Salami, flavored with Chardonnay and fennel.
San Lorenzo 2022 Rock Garden Zinfandel
Pete Seghesio makes 2022 Rock Garden Zinfandel using the grapes from the San Lorenzo planting, his family's original 40-acre block planted in 1896. A blend of 90% Zinfandel, 5% Cabernet and 5% Petite Sirah, this wine is loaded and powerfully built with excellent concentration due to the age of the vines. The texture is opulent but well defined. Black raspberry and black cassis flavors run deep, highlighted by hints of Asian spices, smoky peppercorn and clove. It's a luxuriously silky sipper to share with friends.
We like pairing Rock Garden Zinfandel with Kowalski's Signature Parmigiano & Porcini Salami, flavored with – what else? – Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese and porcini mushrooms.
Find these wines for a limited time in our Wine & Spirits shops at our Excelsior, Grand Avenue, Oak Park Heights, Shoreview, Uptown and Woodbury Markets.
