For much of the 20th century, the viticultural ‘pioneer’ Agoston haraszthy was credited with introducing this important variety to California from his native Hungary, but a more worthy Zinfandel hero is the California historian Charles L. Sullivan, who unearthed the truth, or at least part of it, about Zinfandel’s route to California. It was he who pointed out that there was no mention of Zinfandel in Haraszthy’s copious promotional literature in the early 1860s, and that, long before Haraszthy arrived in California in 1849, the variety was well known on the American East Coast.
