State Store Pick of the Week
Brazin "Old Vine" Zinfandel
Lodi, Calif.
$14.99*
PLCB Item No. 3219
Vines are just like people: They may get less vigorous as they grow older, but they get better at what they do. For winemakers, "old vines" yield much smaller quantities of grapes than young ones, but the grapes are more flavorful. This complex and layered wine is loaded with brandied cherry and molten chocolate aromas. It displays some beautiful "legs" when swirled.
