Chronic Cellars
Purple Paradise Paso Robles Zinfandel Blend
Paso Robles, Central Coast, California, USA
I have been wanting to try wine from this winery for some time now, mainly because of the fun label art and creative naming. It still holds true, if the wine has a wacky label, they are probably trying to make up for poor quality wine. This is nothing more than a conversation piece for a party. Bland, oddly tannic for a Zinfandel blend, and single dimensional. Not a bad deal for $15, but I won’t purchase again. Maybe some of their other wines are better?

Im at Depalmas Italian Restaurant in Athens GA and I am pleased with this blend: CHRONIC CELLARS - PURPLE PARADISE 2016 from Passo Robles - my fav little spot in Cali! 79% zin, 11% petite sirah, 6% syrah, and 4% Grenache. 14.5%ABV. It has all the spice of a great Zin and all the big bold dark fruit of a cab. Texture is amazing- velvet perfection with a slab of butter. This may be the perfect blend. A nice chocolate center and a not too dry finish. My new go to wine. KAPOW!
