I picked up a bottle of Sebastiani 2005 Sonoma County Zinfandel from the liquor store today to put on the rack.
This bottle of Zinfandel is a combination of fruit from some of the finest Zinfandel vineyards within the Dry Creek and Alexander Valleys . The Dry Creek Valley is arguably the best region in the world for growing Zinfandel. It has a long history with this grape (going as far back as 125 years) and has a climate in which Zinfandel flourishes. The Alexander Valley fruit contributes vibrant flavors with soft tannins that nicely complement the heartier Dry Creek Zinfandel fruit.
I will let everyone know how it is once I try it. Although the last wine I tasted was the V. Sattui 2005 Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon, which was OUTSTANDING! If it ends up being half as good I will still be more than happy.
