[PALATE PRESS] 2006 Unti Vineyards - Zinfandel, Dry Creek Valley : PALATE PRESS: This wine is actually a blend: 88% Zinfandel, 9% Petite Syrah and 3% Barbera. And what a marvelous blend it is - a refined wine that might even be a bit sophisticated for a Super Bowl party, but an indulgence I surely wouldn't forgo.

[Wine Library TV] Red Zinfandel and Foie Gras? - Episode #292: However...since the 1980 Lytton Springs zin is no longer available (absolutely the best EVER)..my vote for the best zin goes to Bella Vineyards (Upper Dry Creek Valley, Healdsburg, Sonoma County)ANY of their Zins are outstanding, but savor their Big River Ranch Zin from their 110 year old vineyard. It will re-set the upper limit of your tasting requirements.

[Nico Wines presents] Crazy Times! « Nico Wines presents: we’ll be making a Dry Creek Zinfandel.  This project has evolved fairly quickly.  We found a terrific vineyard to source fruit from: the Oddone Vineyard, on the eastern bench of Dry Creek Valley.  The vineyard is located on a beautiful southwest facing hillside, with well draining stony soils.  The vines are around 15 years old.  The vineyard is owned by Pier and Barbara Oddone.  We’ve been sampling that fruit recently and it’s sitting around 22.6 brix; we expect to pick it near the end of this week.  We’ll be crushing the Zin for this new project at Peterson Winery in Dry Creek Valley.  Peterson is located right next to Kokomo, where I’m making the Nico wines.  Despite the fact that Peterson Winery’s softball team beat our softball team this year in the Championship game of the Healdsburg Men’s Softball League, I’m still looking forward to working with the talented and passionate crew at Peterson.  Congrats on your win, Jamie!

Despite occasional gifts and samples, I buy a LOT of wine.
