Wine OR Wine & Food

Zinfandel has the potential to be among the most diverse wines both in style and use. For those who have discovered some of the most classic Zinfandels, the curiosity factor is why the varietal is not more popular, and why Americans have not adopted it as our quintessential food wine. It has always remained in the shadows with a cultic following just lagging behind Cabernets, Merlots, and Pinot Noirs in popularity. In this seminar, we will explore several different styles of Zinfandel. We will showcase some of the "smaller" and "fruitier" styles that suit well as an aperitif by the fire and compare those to some more traditional "text-book" Zinfandel profiles and finish up with really big, zesty Zinfandels that will knock your socks off and make your eyes roll around in the back of your head!  Join our distinguished panel for this event.
