Gifted by my partner’s sister as a sweet & thoughtful surprise for our 6 month anniversary ♡ We are new to wine but have been spending our past few date nights just at home watching movies with an inexpensive bottle she recommended from our local grocery store (which we enjoy so much!). And to celebrate our anniversary, we did the exact same thing— except this time, with a bottle carefully chosen by a loved one from her own personal collection, who is THE wine lover!! Rudy & I both loved the taste of this one so much. I think it’s a great start for those like us who are getting into wine and have no idea about anything and just want something tasty, because now we know we like zinfandel blends! I’m not there yet with describing the taste of wine but I do really like the complexity of blends now and thought this tasted very clean and yummy (っ˘ڡ˘ς) Thank you Aimee!! Note: we also did homework on how the name originated! Very cool to know how the person who made this sold his popular zin blend & had to sign a clause that wouldn’t allow him to make anymore zin blends for 8 years- hence the 8 years in the desert :0 — 2 years ago

Heavy punch if orange and honeysuckle on the nose and palete. Sweet but not too sweet. Almost a little bit of passion fruit on the finish. Very refreshing and easy to drink.

Tart fruits on the nose, melon and orange. Smooth on the palete with a medium body. Minor minerality and acid on the swish. Balanced finish that is very drinkable by itself.

Very bubbly. Excellent tart notes of green apple on the palete and finish. Bubbles replenish themselves after a few mins.

Nice notes of maple syrup on the nose. Sweet but also has a nice oakiness to it as well. Very bold and complex for a chardonnay, one of my favorites.

Mild tartness on the nose, bubbly and light bodied. Not very sweet on the palete or finish. Very refreshing and easy to drink in the summer, or in the winter by the fire when you need to cool off.

Nose: petro, diesel, rubber, old oak barrels. Taste: petro, strong oak, then it's fresh peach, fresh apricots, classic great aged Reisling, dry sherry. Let it sit, and decant, gets better and more fruit. WILD STUFF! (Brought back home from Manfreds in Copenhagen) Enjoyed with Aimee, Javaid, Tim — 9 years ago
