This year, roam, lounge, and sip your way through an extraordinary range of Zinfandels and blends—from vineyard-designate classics to standout new releases—each showcasing the richness of California’s diverse growing regions. Explore rare cellar selections and enjoy easy, engaging conversations with the winemakers who bring these wines to life. Sumptuous seasonal bites from estate chefs and CIA’s talented culinary team offer perfect pairings, thoughtfully created to complement every sip.
More than just a tasting, this is a vibrant celebration of craftsmanship, community and the dynamic spirit that continues to define Zinfandel and ZAP. Raise a glass with us to 35 flavorful years—and the people who make it unforgettable!
What makes this Tasting Unique?
This is an intimate gathering of only 200, featuring a carefully curated selection of winemakers and principals from 30 wineries, ready to pop the corks on their special offerings, including big bottles and rare wines. Set up as one expansive “lounge,” guests are encouraged to relax and savor acclaimed Zinfandels at the winery tables, as well as the ZAP-hosted bar. Winemakers are also set loose to roam. It’s like an enhanced Heritage Lounge! Treat yourself to delightful bites crafted by Copia chefs and food artisans, ensuring a memorable afternoon in this charming setting.

Make the Most of Your Day
Don’t let a winery monopolize your glass. Just because they put wine in your glass doesn’t mean you have to drink it. Every sip you take of the same winery is a sip you are missing from another winery. There is a dump bucket right there. Pour it out even as you’re complimenting the winery. It is not a sign of disrespect.
