From one of the pioneering families of this endangered appellation in greater L.A., a true old-style California Port.

Intensely sweet and super-drinkable, this Sherry-style wine has a light, creamy texture with potent flavors of white chocolate, raspberry honey, tangerine zest, vanilla crème brûlée and dusty spices. It’s a gorgeous wine, a perfect way to end a great dinner with dainty little dessert pastries.

Galleano 1999 Dos Rancheros Zinfandel (Cucamonga Valley)
- $18
From old vines, this is a sumptuous Zin, packed with wild berry, chocolate, pepper, tobacco and herb aromas and flavors. Bone-dry, it features a scour of tannins that suggests age-ability. This round, balanced wine is soft enough to drink now. —S.H.

- $28
This is an easy-drinking Port-style wine for drinking now. It’s light in color and body and quite sweet, with sugared blackberry, chocolate and orange flavors. Really lovely in its own way with chocolate desserts.

Galleano 2001 Dos Rancheros Old Vines Zinfandel (Cucamonga Valley)
- Online Exclusive
- $18
An old-style Zin, finished sweet with residual sugar and palate-coating tannins. This is the kind of big red wine people used to like, and it still has its fans, although it’s out of touch with modern tastes.

Galleano NV Old Vines Zinfandel (Cucamonga Valley)
- Online Exclusive
- $6
Tastes like a Central Valley Port, with overripe berry flavors and thick, numbing tannins, although it’s not as sweet as Galleano’s more expensive Zins.

Galleano 2001 Pioneers Legendary Old Vines Zinfandel (Cucamonga Valley)
- Online Exclusive
- $16
Pretty much identical with this winery’s Dos Rancheros bottling, a sweet wine. If anything, even more tannic, and numbs the palate so that sugar is just about the only thing you can taste.
