D-cubed Cellars started in 1994 with the Howell Mountain Zinfandel made grapes grown at the Black Sears Vineyard. In 2010 D-cubed Cellars was called a Top Artisan Winery by Wine and Spirits Magazine, a wonderful honor.

2008 was an interesting year where patience was rewarded. It was a year of late rains in the spring and this put the grapes behind, but the long cool summer helped ripen Zinfandel into wines with lovely fruit, subtle tannins and wonderful spice.. Having 5 Zinfandels from this vintage demonstrates how well Zinfandel displays its terrior and how versatile Zinfandel can be!
