[Untitled] The Year in Wine: Highs, Lows, Bargains & Holiday Picks » Wine: So, I’d choose a bottle of Cristalino Rose Cava from Catalu?a, Spain (about $8), and for a still wine I’d go with a Montevina Terra d’Oro Zinfandel from Amador County, California (about $12).I really do believe that overly-oaked/high alcohol Chardonnay has seen its day, and I believe the same thing about overly ripe/high alcohol Cabernet Sauvignon.

[Fermentation: The Daily Wine Blog] Fermentation: The Daily Wine Blog: Girly Man Nixes Wine History: Is there anyone of drinking age in the U.S., or in the world for that matter, that doesn't know that California produces wine, and yes, even Zinfandel?

[Dr Vino's wine blog] Poll: banning high alcohol wines | Dr Vino's wine blog: Wine is a subjective product and never is the mantra that the customer is always right ring more true then with this art form.
