...150-180 years ago, that's between 1822 and 1852--hmmm.

The Spaniards brought the mission grape in the seventeenth century; it dominated Southwest and California winemaking for some time. German immigrants from Missouri got to California during the Gold Rush (1849), built the first successful commercial wine industry in LA County at Anaheim; Haraszty (sp) got out there after the German immigrants.

Leaves the question: how did zinfandel/primitivo grapes get from Croatia to California, when exactly and why?
