Day 3: The Road to Napa with Steve

Gnarly Head Zin

Gnarly Head Zin $6.99

We were blessed with cool sunny weather today for the ZAP tasting. It is indoors but in two large warehouses right on San Francisco Bay so we were exposed to the elements when traversing between them. Despite reports of frost I found several 2008 Zins with much to like.  Some great ones actually. Some nice 2007s are still in the market too but they are becoming harder to find. The best overall group of zins had to be Seghesios. 2008s and 2007s are tasting good there. We found a few new leads too which I’ll report on once secured.

BTW Gnarly Head was the best value for the 5th year in a row! It is very impressive for the price.
