2009 Valdez Family Sonoma Zinfandel

[andrawes76]

I will agree with you on the Scherrer and the Swan, heck you introduced me to them. Thankful for that but I haven't had a Ridge Zinfandel that I enjoyed in a LONG time. Clicker Brick, Biale, Four Vines Sophisticate are a few others that have made me really fall back in love with zinfandel. Call Ulises and tell him to send you a bottle of the 2009 Sonoma Zinfandel he just made, even if it costs you $30/bottle. You tell me. If its not to your standards, then call me a horses ass on the Wine Board and I will humbly accept that title... Zins should be priced rightfully at $20/bottle if they expect to move but sometimes thats not the case. For example the Argentine's are price sticklers who believe their wines are god's gift. Perhaps that's the French rubbing off on them.
