Seven Deadly Zins Zinfandel

Tuesday, March 31, 2009

This is a great America Red. 

Soft, pepper and licorice-clove notes merge into a sinful marriage of deep, brambly blackberries and lustful cherries. The finish is clean on the palate with hints of rich vanilla, cocoa, and mild tannins.  Should run you about $12 a bottle.

This is a great cab for everyday drinking. 

This balanced, full bodied wine with sweet tannins has a hint of cigar box to complement the cassis and framboise notes.

This week I am dedicated to the pursuit of Southern California.....Cambira Chardonnay has been my wine of choice. 

You get tropical fruit- bannana, some oak..It has great balance and rich.  You can definitely get your teeth into this one. This will run you about $15 a bottle.

The perfect wine for St. Patrick's Day. 

A Portugese wine and the name literally means "Green Wine," referring to its useful freshness rather than its color.

This varietal clearly shows it characteristics.

Inky color, floral aromas and a velvet mouthfeel.  This bottle will run you about $24.
