- Nppett - 11-19-1999 I have recently had the CIGAR ZIN - '97 from Cosentino. I really enjoyed it and am curious how it ranks among Red Zins - Randy Caparoso - 11-19-1999 Although not quite in the league of a Robert Biale, Turley, or single vineyard bottling by Ridge, De Loach or Ravenswood, the Cosentino "Cigar" is very, very good -- for a big, voluminous, aggressively smoky-oaked style. Please don't ask about whether it goes with cigars, as it will just reopen another can of worms with the regular contributors. |
