Okay, this one I picked up and wanted to see what it was all about, since I had had a Zin from Sobon Estate before.  This wine smacks you with power and luridly deep dark fruits.  I mean, it's like it's a $1000 a night hooker -- not that I have ever had a hooker -- as it beckons you, warms your throat and caresses your gullet.  The color has a bluish tint it's so purply and while the flavor is not too complex, it is bold and imposing in beating down your tastebuds.

This wine is a winner!

Our Mission: The Black Winer strives to expose African Americans [and others] to wines, without the flair, stuffiness, and airs of elitism and snobbery that you get from sommeliers and high level wine enthusiasts. We believe in finding something that you like the taste of, outside of the basic brands that you have been force-fed over the years through a combination of ethnically targeted advertising, and what people in your family have historically been drinking.
