About Leoni Farms Winery
Over six generations, the Leonis have done everything from dairy farming, to mining, to cattle ranching, to logging, to even construction in the mountains of Amador county. It was only a matter of time before they got to winemaking, right? In 2014, Leoni Farms Winery was founded by Jon and Meredith Campbell. Christened using Meredith’s family name, they’ve been putting Amador County’s unique mountainy terroir to good use ever since.

Sierra Leoni

TASTING NOTES:
“Heavy on the palate with all the boldness and fruit forward pluminess that make Amador County Zinfandels great, our Busi Ranch Zin is our flagship wine.“

BARRELS
9 months in American oak barrels.

TANGENTIALLY RELATED FACT to help you make conversation over this wine:
Sierra Leone is a small country located on the western coast of Africa. Once a British colony, it became independent after 1961 first as a parliamentary government and then as a presidential republic. After several decades of tumult, they’ve been a stable democracy since 1998. They are one of the world’s largest producers of titanium (and rutile) and a major producer of gold and diamonds.

How does this relate to Leoni? Not at all!

OR (really-going-with-the-theme option):
