Description

The Spencers bought a vineyard near Jackson in Amador County in 1970. They planted 30-acres of Zinfandel, followed by 5 rows of Bastardo, Touriga, Souzao, Tinta Cao, & Alvarelhao. St Amant Winery is now in Lodi but they still grow grapes in Amador & buy grapes from a handful of Lodi vineyards. We’ve been a fan of Stuart Spencer’s wines since our 2019 student trip & even earlier.
