1999 Terra d'oro by Montevina

[tandkvd]

This is my first venture into Zin. Was in a small wine shop (actually Baron's Wine room), that was in an upscale market place. There selection of wines was quite small.
The wine had alot of berrys on the nose, but had pepper and earthy flavors. I had it with hambergur steak and baked potato. I saved some for today to try to see if more flavors came through. But it didn't keep over night.
I looked up some prievious post on this wine. I read a post back in May 2001 that some one said it didn't keep overnight. I found many refferenses to Montevina, but none on the Terra d'oro. Most of the post on the Montevina had the price around $12.00. I paid $23.00 for this bottle. It may have been the small shop in the high rent area. The wine was good while it lasted but not worth the bucks I paid.
