ZINFANDEL, OR PRIMITIVO?
Why not both! Or, three...
This month we're taking a round trip - from the New World to the Old, and back - to decide who does Zin/Primitivo best! From the sunny foothills of the Sierra Nevada mountains, we'll journey across the Atlantic to Puglia, Italy, to taste the original, and then head back to Sonoma, where the cooler climate makes for some spicy Zin. All three wines are rated 90 points or higher by multiple, highly regarded wine critics.
Wines for this tasting will be sold through wine.com and the cost is as follows:
WINES $80 + SHIPPING $20* + TASTING $30 = $130*
*Shipping with wine.com is additional, however, if you join their Stewardship program, it costs just $5 a month ($59 a year). I strongly recommend everyone in the group sign up, as the program pays for itself after three orders!
