The Wines
Handcrafted. Estate-Grown. Singular.
"Handcrafted, artisan, estate and single vineyard wines that faithfully represent the terroir of origin." — Kathy Stonum, Winemaker
Our Philosophy
Faithful to the Land
At Stonum Winery, every wine begins in the vineyard. Kathy Stonum's winemaking philosophy is rooted in a deep respect for the land — a belief that the finest wines are not made, but revealed, through careful stewardship of the vine and minimal intervention in the cellar.
Lodi's Mediterranean climate — warm days, cool Delta breezes, and sandy loam soils — creates ideal conditions for the estate's signature varietals. The result is a portfolio of wines that are expressive, food-friendly, and unmistakably Lodi.
The Portfolio
Estate Wines
Estate
Old Vine Zinfandel
The soul of Stonum Winery and the heart of Lodi wine country. Sourced from old vines planted in the estate's deep, sandy loam soils, this Zinfandel is rich and spiced with dark berry fruit, black pepper, and a long, warming finish. It is the wine that defines the estate.
- Dark cherry and blackberry
- Black pepper and baking spice
- Full body, velvety tannins
Estate
Cabernet Sauvignon
Structured and elegant, the Stonum Cabernet Sauvignon reflects Lodi's warm growing season and the estate's commitment to quality over volume. Dark fruit, cedar, and a long, polished finish make this a wine of genuine distinction.
- Cassis and dark plum
- Cedar and tobacco leaf
- Firm tannins, long finish
Estate
Chardonnay
Bright and balanced, the Stonum Chardonnay is a study in restraint. Fermented with minimal oak influence, it showcases the natural acidity and minerality of the estate's fruit — a refreshing counterpoint to the estate's bold reds.
- Green apple and citrus
- Subtle oak, crisp minerality
- Medium body, clean finish
Estate
Rosé of Zinfandel
Vibrant, food-friendly, and endlessly approachable — the Stonum Rosé of Zinfandel is a tasting room staple and a perennial wine club favorite. Strawberry, watermelon, and a hint of spice make it the perfect companion for warm Lodi afternoons.
- Strawberry and watermelon
- Hint of Zinfandel spice
- Crisp, refreshing finish
Estate
Petite Sirah
Bold, inky, and built for the cellar — the Stonum Petite Sirah is a wine of serious intent. Deep purple in the glass, with concentrated dark fruit, violet, and a tannic structure that rewards patience.
- Blueberry and dark plum
- Violet and dark chocolate
- Full body, firm tannins
Estate
Sangiovese
A nod to the Italian varietals that thrive in Lodi's warm climate, the Stonum Sangiovese is bright and savory — cherry, dried herbs, and a lively acidity that makes it one of the most food-versatile wines in the portfolio.
- Tart cherry and tomato leaf
- Dried herbs and earth
- Medium body, bright acidity
