The new Zinfandel Weekend Classic Experience 2025 where passion meets flavor at the ultimate wine country experience

Step into an unparalleled weekend of wine, passion, and flavor as you are cordially invited to the 2025 ZinEX Weekend Classic—a celebration of the Zinfandel community that promises to be a journey like no other. Nestled in the breathtaking Napa Valley, this event brings together wine lovers, makers, and artisans for an unforgettable adventure, set against the backdrop of Napa's idyllic vineyards.

Imagine a weekend filled with the joyous sounds of clinking glasses and laughter, the mouthwatering flavors of gourmet cuisine, and the intoxicating aromas of exceptional Zinfandels. Included in your exclusive package is a two-night stay at the Archer Hotel in downtown Napa, your luxurious haven for the weekend, where every detail is designed to elevate your experience.

The ZinEX Weekend Classic is more than just an event; it’s an immersion into the world of Zinfandel. Enjoy access to exclusive VIP-only soirées, where you’ll mingle with the pioneers of the Zinfandel world. Attend intimate seminars and tastings that showcase rare and reserve Zinfandels, and relax in our Heritage Lounge, a dedicated space that celebrates the rich legacy of Zinfandel throughout the entire event.

Highlighting the weekend is our signature Evening with the Winemakers Auction and Dinner—an elegant affair that promises to be as inspiring as it is indulgent. This extraordinary night will feature coveted auction prizes, allowing guests to bid on unique experiences and rare wine collections, all while enjoying an exquisite dinner crafted to complement the finest Zinfandels.

Your participation and support as a ZAP (Zinfandel Advocates & Producers) member are invaluable. Every bid and every VIP ticket purchase directly supports our mission of Zinfandel education, advocacy, and outreach, helping to preserve and promote California’s Zinfandel heritage for generations to come.
