Did you know that there is Zin planted in Oakville? Yep, but less than 10 acres, mostly by Ghost Block's owners. They make this excellent Oakville Zin for - wait for it - only $25. Not big and jammy, but rather dark fruit and a very "creamy" finish. This is my new crowd pleasing wine that I have open for guests

Oh wow. This is the best $25 Napa wine I've had in a while. Ever had a Zin from Oakville before? Less than 10 Zin acres under vine in entire appellation. Killer value right here

Rich but balanced. Great finish with pretty texture for a Zin. Pairs perfectly with a November ice storm.
