Landing 63

The Region:

From Lodi, California, Landing 63 is an exclusive brand to Tre Amici. - meaning that it can't be purchased anywhere else in the world.

While Lodi might be a lesser known region than it's neighbouring Napa Valley, the similar climates and outstanding winemakers mean if you're a Napa lover, Lodi wines are a must-try.

We don't ask you just take our word for it, Wine Enthusiast named Lodi its 2015 Wine Region of the Year!

The Winery:

Named after a historic marina on the Sacramento River, Landing 63 is a true California wine brand, featuring beautiful labels drawing back to its origins. Perfect for summertime (especially in cottage country or on the water), the labels feature imagery of boats, paddles, and water.

Landing 63 Winemakers

From Noel Basso, Landing 63's Director of Winemaking, Landing 63 is "a place that always takes me back to family fishing adventures, peaceful boating trips, and the beautiful scenery and vineyards of our great state".

Where is it from?

Created by UK wine expert, Matthew Jukes, these beverages contain sophisticated and complex taste profiles far different from, but looking and pairing like, fine wine.

Jukes is vegan, 0% alcohol, gluten-free, Halal, has no artificial ingredients, and has tiny calories and sugar - making it a great option to have on hand on your bar cart.
