Green & Red 2007 Napa Valley Zinfandel Chiles Canyon Vineyards brings a lot to the party. I love zins and this one begged to be sipped and savored, not slogged down. The layers of flavors just wash over you. Red fruits and earthy aromas, full-bodied, good depth and structure. It makes you sit up and pay attention while its in your mouth, and you don't soon forget it on the finish. Only $21. It rated 92 points on the Wine Spectator scale. It's a great value for the money. I enjoyed it by itself but I'm guessing it would do well with a nice steak.
Earlier this evening I had an opportunity to taste Almos 2007 Malbec. I keep trying to like Malbecs and I should since I like shiraz, rhone blends, gigondas, all those spicy, peppery wines but I have yet to find a malbec that I like. Does anyone have any suggestions for me?
