Wild Hog Talmage Vineyard Zinfandel 2001

Thanks you guys for the warm embrace; been on alot of message boards where newbies were stigmatized.

To answer a few questions: I used to work in the liquor store in question and I know the wines I'm talking about weren't burnt. The store is closing down, and they're just trying to get what they can for the bottles regardless of original cost. It's a grocery store style liquor store, but occasionally we did get nice stuff in there. In fact, I know they weren't left outside to suffocate because I stocked most of them.

As far as buying them out, I did. There were two dusty old bottles of this stuff left the other day. I got one, the liquor manager got the other (we happen to be drinking buddies so I can't complain).

At any rate, I guess I really can't crab. In the same sale, I picked up 4 bottles of Mumm Cordon Rouge NV for 12 bucks.
