Zinfandel

[dananne]

I agree -- Zins are unique, often interesting, and very tasty. They are considerably jammy, juicy, spicy, and upfront when young, though they can even age a little bit, lending them some subtlety. Some people like them one way, some the other. Either way, just neat stuff.

Speaking of Zins, I just saw a Martinelli Zin with an alcohol % of something like 17.4%. How in the blazes does that even happen? Is that even legal? What qualifies for a dessert or fortified wine? This is a table wine, for crying out loud!
