Mike Grgich, who was born in Croatia, founded the Zinfandel Advocates and Producers in 1991.\u00a0 In trying to create awareness about Zinfandel, and in thinking it was the same grape as his native Plavac Mali, according to ampelography (the study of leaves), he consulted experts and DNA evidence was collected.\u00a0 A UC Davis professor thought Primitivo was a lot like Zinfandel and the evidence concluded that they are identical twins.\u00a0 Zinfandel is a parent of Plavac Mali, and same grape as <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Crljenak Ka\u0161telanski<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.\u00a0 Ampelography archeological evidence found existence of cultivation in Croatia from around 6000 BCE, older than anywhere else.\u00a0 So, Zinfandel began in the heart of the beginning of viticulture and from there it spread throughout the Mediterranean.\u00a0 It went to Italy from Croatia via monks where it was head trained in lava rock and called Primitivo in Puglia, Italy.\u00a0 It was thought so well of that Primitivo was requested by name in the 1800\u2019s as part of the dowries for the Dons and Countessas.\u00a0 Simultaneously Zinfandel travelled to Austria and Hungry and there it is called Zeirfandler and trained in fertile soils on trellises.\u00a0 When the Imperial Austrian Nursery sent a Prince to California during the Gold Rush, it was labeled as Zinfandel.\u00a0 In England it\u2019s called Black St Peters.\u00a0 Phylloxera wiped out all but 9 vines in Europe<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.\u00a0 It has uneven veraison so it takes a loving viticulturalist to determine the style. \u00a0 In cooler areas, it takes on lighter raspberry notes with more acidity.\u00a0 In warmer areas it takes on heavier strawberry and blackberry notes with less acidity. \u00a0 When Primitivo is head-trained it produces smaller berries with more chocolately-anise aromas. So, although, Zinfandel and Primitivo are identical twins, over the last 2500 years, they are different in body, acidity and flavor profiles. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0European Union recognized them as the same for labeling purposes in 1999.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-3d4eab43 elementor-widget elementor-widget-spacer\" data-id=\"3d4eab43\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"spacer.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer-inner\"><\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-403c8746 e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"403c8746\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-82ad9d0 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"82ad9d0\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">COMING SOON!<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-83c1173 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"83c1173\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>This page is currently aging like a fine wine.
