A great night to grab a bottle from our wine club shipment. We choose the 2009 Zinfandel from Paso Robles.
The crazy, verbose winemaker writes:
Silk draped across a shapely thigh, trailing down fine long legs, redolent of scarlet raspberries crushed in a mortar with pungently fresh oregano & the dark red essence of a tea rose at high noon; note the scent of plum frangipane passionately wresting with Limousin clafoutis: the kind baked with cherry pits for deep flavor, touched by camphor & with a fresh grind of white pepper corns.
My notes:
Yummy. Bold. Fruity. Delicious. One adjective to count my decades.
Pairs wonderfully with Pizza. Birthday Pizza.
