The majority of the portfolio is dedicated to California's iconic red wine grape variety, Zinfandel – the original grape variety planted on original estate vineyards by founder Pietro Biale in 1937. Aldo Biale took on the management of these Zinfandel vines after his father's death in 1942. Due to strict government regulations on the sale of alcohol at that time, Aldo was not able to legally sell his \"homemade\" wine. To get around this issue he sold his wine under the code name \"Gallina Nera\", or Black Chicken, a name he adapted from Chianti's symbolic Gallo Nero rooster. In this way, customers were able to ring up and order jugs of Gallina Nera, along with other produce from Aldo's ranch, right under the noses of the authorities. In 1991, Robert Biale carried on his family's winemaking history with the establishment of Robert Biale Vineyards. To this day, the estate still produces its flagship Black Chicken Zinfandel wine primarily from the Biale Winery vineyard in the heart of Oak Knoll District. Robert Biale Vineyards also sources Oak Knoll District-grown Zinfandel grapes from its Aldo's and Black Chicken vineyards and works with established winegrowers and producers across Napa Valley and Sonoma County to supplement its own vineyard yields. A small selection of varietal Petite Sirah and Sangiovese wines complement the estate's extensive Zinfandel portfolio, along with red blends of grape varieties including Zinfandel, Petite Sirah, Grenache and Syrah grown on estate-partnered vineyards in California.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e","published_at":"2024-01-16T17:39:29-05:00","created_at":"2024-01-14T18:02:18-05:00","vendor":"CaskCartel.com","type":"Wine","tags":["Country_United States","Other_Wine","Producer_Robert Biale Vineyards","Region_California","RK120124","Source_WineOnlineDelivery0124","Type_Red Wine","Varietal_Red Blend"],"price":18695,"price_min":18695,"price_max":18695,"available":true,"price_varies":false,"compare_at_price":null,"compare_at_price_min":0,"compare_at_price_max":0,"compare_at_price_varies":false,"variants":[{"id":44200706605194,"title":"Default Title","option1":"Default Title","option2":null,"option3":null,"sku":null,"requires_shipping":true,"taxable":false,"featured_image":null,"available":true,"name":"2018 | Robert Biale Vineyards | Basic Black","public_title":null,"options":["Default Title"],"price":18695,"weight":5443,"compare_at_price":null,"inventory_management":"shopify","barcode":null,"requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_allocations":[],"quantity_rule":{"min":1,"max":null,"increment":1}}],"images":["\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/75_1aab9d06-5468-4f30-9993-3ac4e3f68489.png?v=1705273441"],"featured_image":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/75_1aab9d06-5468-4f30-9993-3ac4e3f68489.png?v=1705273441","options":["Title"],"media":[{"alt":"2018 | Robert Biale Vineyards | Basic Black at CaskCartel.com","id":25904626499722,"position":1,"preview_image":{"aspect_ratio":0.39,"height":387,"width":151,"src":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/75_1aab9d06-5468-4f30-9993-3ac4e3f68489.png?v=1705273441"},"aspect_ratio":0.39,"height":387,"media_type":"image","src":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/75_1aab9d06-5468-4f30-9993-3ac4e3f68489.png?v=1705273441","width":151}],"requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_groups":[],"content":"\u003ch2\u003eRed Wine: 2018 | Robert Biale Vineyards | Basic Black\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is a coferment of Grenache, Alicante Bouschet, Early Burgundy, Zinfandel, Syrah, Carignan, Tempranillo and Petite Sirah, aged in French oak.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOrder from the Largest \u0026amp; Most Trusted Premium Spirits Marketplace! \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFeatured in\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eROLLING STONE\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMEN'S JOURNAL\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUS WEEKLY\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNOTICE:\u003c\/strong\u003e Many other small liquor store sites may end up cancelling your order due to the high demand, unavailability or inaccurate inventory counts.  We have partnerships consisting of a large network of licensed retailers from within the United States, Europe and across the world ensuring orders are fulfilled.   \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eProducer:\u003c\/b\u003e Robert Biale Vineyards\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eVintage\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2018\u003cb\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 750ml\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eABV:\u003c\/strong\u003e 14.8%\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVarietal:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Red Blend\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCountry\/Region:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e United States, California\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c!-- split --\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eDetailed Description\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is a coferment of Grenache, Alicante Bouschet, Early Burgundy, Zinfandel, Syrah, Carignan, Tempranillo and Petite Sirah, aged in French oak.
