Today we review a $9 red zinfandel from the 2009 vintage in the exclusive wine region “California.”
HEY this zin is nice, and it’s cheap. Is it great? No. Do I want to keep drinking glass after glass? No, but then again, I don’t really love red zinfandel.
If I did love zinfandel, I would absolutely love Buffalo Grove. It’s totally drinkable. That’s saying a lot, because I usually hate inexpensive red wine. I found this at Total Wine. It smells like a generic California red, but it has a snappy, bright, peppery, open and very berry-berry taste that wakes you up. And at just 12.5% alcohol, it’s easy-drinking. I liked the deeper, darker Zen of Zin more, but that’s a little more expensive.
