A bottle of wine from California, allowed in my household due to it being a gift from a friend. ZOMG feel free to bring me this one again!
Label: 7 Deadly Zins (Lodi Appellation - Zinfandel 2004)
This wine was a ble blend of seven old vine zinfandels from seven differnt growers in the Lodi region.
and DAMN is it good. Upon the first pour into my Eisch red wine goblet, the scent alone had me. Rich, juicy, jammy, deep, 'come taste me NOW'. But I couldn't. I just kept sniffing, sniffing, sniffing, whilst my friend D laughed a bit at my enchantment with the scent of this wine.
I take the first sip and uh, well, have to force myself not to gulp the next. wow. The fruitiness, spiciness (a hint of cinnamon in there), and a bit of sweet lingering on the tongue juat amazing. Happiness. :>
Thanks, Dana, this was just lovely. :>
