Hey, I picked up a Rancho Zabaco 2000 Dry Creek Valley Reserve for $15. I have never seen such a creature before and can't seem to find any notes on it.
Is anyone familiar with their Reserve?

Has anyone even HEARD of it?
I know that it exists, 'cause it's in my cellar. But I can't even find it listed on any of the wine-selling sites.

I can't even find the Rancho Zabaco Dry Creek Zinfandel (regular bottle) locally. I think Drew is the one who recommended it but I find only the RZ Sonoma Heritage zin, the Dancing Bull, and Gallo of Sonoma Dry Creek zin.

Ask and you shall receive.....
2000 Rancho Zabaco, Zinfandel, Reserve, Dry Creek Valley, California, $14, 29,000 cases. Medium-bodied and crisp, the nose reveals mixed berries, cherries, vanilla and cedar. Straightforward, the flavors mirror the nose. Nice BBQ wine. 85/86.

Bucko, you are a great and wise human being. If I ever have another offspring, I promise to name him after you.

Why would you do that to someone you love?

No kiddin'. Like Johnny Cash used to say, might as well name a boy "Sue", and give him something to fight about his whole life.
