Kenwood has long been a small community in Sonoma Valley. Ken has long eyed opening a winery and producing small lots of Zinfandels in the prestigious Sonoma Valley. He named the best Zinfandel at St. Anne’s Crossing “Kennethwood” to celebrate the opening of the new winery. This wine was blended to Ken’s perfection from various barrels of the estate Zinfandel from the prestigious Dry Creek Valley along with a splash of late-ripening estate Petit Verdot.
