Very tasty 2018 Zin we enjoyed with homemade cast iron pizza tonight…DELICIOUS! We loved the fruit forward but nice finish of this wine. This is a great deal for an under $20 wine. Definitely recommend and we will buy again

We have no power tonight so I blindly chose this Zinfandel. It’s a great wine and under-rated. Strong pepper and alcohol. Loved the evening without luxuries of power or WiFi. Who needs it??? Just enjoy the wine, the night and my wife. Life is good.

Bittelitt tørr. Ikke så rund og fyldig som jeg helst foretrekker, men grei nok.
