Zin wins the value wine of the week once again. As a reminder, my goal is to find high quality to price ratio wines for you. That means I\u2019m looking to keep the price under $20 and in most cases keep it under $16. In addition these wines should be widely available so that you can find them relatively easily.<\/p>\n
Here\u2019s a California Zinfandel from Mendocino County that recently scored 90 points from the Wine Spectator. It has beautiful dark berry and licorice aromas that make you want to take your time pondering these and other nuances while the wine opens up in the glass.<\/p>\n
After about 15-20 minutes the zesty and spicy flavors really begin to take over leading to a medium length finish that leaves you wanting to savor every last drop. We enjoyed this wine with marinated grilled chicken that enhanced both the chicken and the wine.<\/p>\n
There were close to 13,000 cases of this Zin made and I hope there\u2019s some near you. You should be able to purchase it in the $15-$17 range. As I\u2019ve said previously, high quality Zins in this price range are hard to find, so this one won\u2019t last long on the shelves. Get some to enjoy now while you can find it, or you can cellar it for about 5 years.<\/p>\n
