Sin Zin Zinfandel 2018

Seen this for years and thought it was Lodi for some reason, but this is legit Sonoma fruit and made in a very traditional way: all brambly and spicy, great extract and personality. Balanced and cohesive all the way thru modest finish. Great QPR as well — 12 days ago

Black Chicken Napa Valley Zinfandel 2021

Much more forest and earth compared to Rafanelli zin. So fun to drink next to each other. Rafanelli won this evening but love both zins. — a month ago

Really tasty mostly zin blend. A little bit high acid and tight right when opened but was great after about 30 min — 2 months ago

Saldo California Zinfandel 2021

Terrific wine! Lighter in color but not in taste. Started off in full Zin-mode and gradually changed to be a bit dryer. Hints of toffee, caramel and plum with the slight touch of tobacco in later pours. A beautiful wine to drink on a crisp Fall evening — 2 months ago

Monopole Blue Top Brut Champagne Blend

Scratches that itch. Hard to tell whether it’s a “true champagne” or a very good cremant, but at closeout prices who cares? 90. — 3 months ago
