![]() It isn't actually 100% Zinfandel, but a blend of 88% Zin, 11% Petite Sirah, and 1 % Carignan. If you have the opportunity to buy a bottle of this, DO! It's very reasonably priced and you'll be impressed with the taste. ![]() We usually pair it with hearty pasta dishes and it pairs wonderfully. So anyways, back to the wine! It has a rich ruby color, full-bodied but not overpowering on the taste buds, and has a luscious taste of ripe berries mixed with a hint of smoke and cocoa. We enjoyed a bottle of it last week with our dinner of "arugula pasta", a very yummy dish that we make at least once a week.I should share the recipe on here! It's one of those that is so ingrained in my memory that I am not even sure if I have a recipe written out anywhere. We're heading up to Hess tomorrow and might just have to buy another one! :) ![]() I would say this is the third or fourth bottle of it that we've had over the past year. I finally took some pictures of the bottle and remembered that I should write a blog post about it. For quite some time now Wine Guy and I have enjoyed Hess's Artezin series '06 Dry Creek Zinfandel.
