Prior notes apply (especially the comment about a beach house). I don’t understand why so many Zin makers have gotten away from this incredibly food-friendly style, which used to be the norm in the 80s and early 90s.

Sep 3rd, 2021First off, wine just tastes better when you’re at a beach house right on the damn ocean. OK, now that that’s out of the way, this cheap Zin is really nice. Focused, zingy nose of blackberry/boysenberry fruit, together with dark baking spices. Tangy and concentrated, it’s not complex but is a great burgers-on-the-grill wine. Get a bunch.
