2010 FOXGLOVE ZINFANDEL "PASO ROBLES'
$13.00
Paso Robles, California. 99% Zinfandel, 1% Petite Sirah. As usual, Foxglove absolutely kills it with this big Zin. Opaque and alluring. Blackberry, briar, Asian spice and cocoa dust. Flavorsome, full-on, mouth-coating, but maintaining brightness. Grilled steak or short-ribs with a tangy sauce is in order. Insane value for a Zin this good!!
