GOLD MEDAL: Sakura Wine Awards 93 POINTS: Wine Direct Tasting Team
"Big, bold and rich. Everything a Cali Zin should be. This has been a favourite of ours for a number of years and it absolutely smashes it out of the park if you are looking for a bold red to go with anything off the grill. Full of ripe black fruits and held together by smooth tannins, if you haven't tried Gnarly Zin give it a crack today"
This Zinfandel is a bold wine grown from some of the oldest vines in California. Gnarly Head’s untamed vines produce full-flavored grapes, dense with aromas of blackberry bramble, juicy plum, and toasted oak. This medium-bodied wine boasts a balanced acidity and supple tannins for those who like unique, big wines with a little eclectic edge.
chianti at a good price- good value for everyday drinking
Not quite in same class as recent chianti from Wine Direct released earlier this year-but also half the price. Excellent value for a red wine: you don't have to worry about finding a superior food to match at this excellent price.
Hard pushed to find a NZ red at this price/quality ratio!
