Meadowcroft crafts wines with power, precision, and soul. The mountain air, ancient soils, and dramatic elevation changes all converge to shape wines of extraordinary character.

Tom Meadowcroft doesn't mess around. With three and a half decades of winemaking mastery, he's turned his estate vineyard into a sanctuary of excellence. He studied in Bordeaux, graduated from UC Davis, and has been obsessing over every detail since 1979. When someone dedicates their entire life to one pursuit, magic happens.

Tom took everything he learned from European winemaking legends and blended it with California’s fearless innovation. The result? Wines that marry the finesse of Old World tradition with the bold spirit of the West.

Executive Winemaker Petar Kirilov brings something nobody else has—authentic European winemaking DNA mixed with over a decade of Napa experience. He grew up making wine with his father in Bulgaria and honed his craft at elite Napa wineries, mastering the art of coaxing complexity and balance from every grape.

Bonfort’s Wine & Spirits Journal didn’t just randomly name Meadowcroft a Top 100 winery. This family-run operation is on a mission to stand among the greats, and they’re not stopping until they get there. Every bottle is proof that they’re not just dreaming—they’re delivering.

Meadowcroft doesn’t produce mass-market wine. They craft small-lot, high-integrity wines that disappear quickly from those in the know. When it’s gone, it’s gone.

Case in point: the 2021 Sonoma County Zinfandel. Only 114 cases made, and it drinks like a masterclass in richness and spice. Explosive blackberry, cigar box, and pepper leap from the glass. Smooth. Juicy. Bold. It’s the kind of Zin that was built to dominate smoky BBQ, grilled meats, or anything kissed by fire. This is not your grocery store Zinfandel—it’s a flavor bomb with a pedigree.

100% Zinfandel. Meadowcroft’s 2021 Sonoma County Zinfandel is rich, layered, and full of character. Aromas of blackberry bramble, plum, and cigar box rise from the glass, accented by hints of toasty oak and tobacco. The first sip delivers juicy flavors of black raspberry and ripe blackberry, followed by a touch of cracked pepper and spice. A smooth, rounded mouthfeel and gentle tannins make this wine approachable yet structured, with a lingering finish that brings black pepper and dark fruit back into focus. Enjoy now or let it evolve gracefully through 2032.
