1970 Rodney Strong Zinfandel

[winoweenie]

Hi Amyt and welcome to the board. A few things confuse me . You say " Handwritten lable with the release date of 4/01/70 and the vintage date of 1970." One of the two is wrong because the 1970 vintage of zinfandels wouldn't even have been in the barrels before
9/01/70. The vines were just starting to bud in April. Aside from that, the above advice is rite on. In those days the affable Mr. Strong was more interested in keeping up his moves on the dance floor than putting a good bottle on the table.( And if memory serves me correctly, his 1st vintage was around 72) I know his 1st Alexanders Crown Cab was in the 74 vintage. Sell that sucker to that sucker. WW
