Welcome to Suncé Winery. Suncé, meaning "sun" in Croatian, is located on Olivet Road west of Santa Rosa in Sonoma County. Where olive trees once dominated the landscape, old headpruned vines now quietly assert their beauty. Nestled in this serene environment, Suncé Winery provides a tranquil, romantic, yet down-to-earth atmosphere.
SO MANY GREAT WINES FROM A SMALL FAMILY WINERY
The Origins of Zin
UC Davis researchers in collaboration with Croatian scientists have made the accidental discovery that the Croatian grape Crljenak (and not Plavac Mali) is indeed the parent of Zinfandel. For hundreds of years, Primitivo was thought to be the ancestor of Zin, but in fact, California’s most unique varietal shares its Croatian heritage with Frane!
