During the Great Depression, Aldo Biale sold eggs, walnuts, prunes and vegetables in the Napa Valley. Orders came via the party line phone, which was eavesdropped by nosy neighbors. A "black chicken" became the code name for a jug of Aldo's secret Zinfandel.

Nice spice and acid. Not overblown port like zin. Love the restraint on the Biale zins. Good expression of the different vineyards. Not my fave one from them.

Murrieta's well Tempranillo is so full of fruit but very young. Robbie Meyer's first and only red released. My favorite so far.
