I have exhausted my supply of Pedroncelli Zin so I’m glad to have a wootlegger in place.
I would love to see the cab, too. I just ordered a case of the Three Vineyards Cab and it is disappearing fast. I got a bottle in my last wine club shipment and had to have more. With the QPR of Pedroncelli I could drink their wines every night.
LOL. We consider the Cab an everyday drinker in my house. Anytime it shows up we buy the max. As you said the QPR is amazing. The Zin requires some hearty food to go with so we don’t go through it as fast. We were very happy with the Sangiovese that they put in the last woot they had!
Woofers always receive a 25% discount when ordering 12b or more,and a 50% shipping discount. Call is at 800-836-3894 so we can flip some switches in your record and BOOM! You win!
Have not had this wine, but the specs are the specs I shoot for when I bottle my Zinfandels. I enjoy the spice that I have tasted in other Pedroncelli Zinfandels.
Pedroncelli Zin and Cab have long been ‘local knowledge’ as great value Zin and (surprisingly) ageworthy Cab. A bit rustic, compared to the more elegant Napa Zins, the Mother Clone Zin uses fruit from clones of their oldest plantings, which are at least 100 years old and more (not, as far as I can tell, pre-phylloxera, however). The Cabs are best between 10 and 20 - it’s very traditional winemaking with a fairly light hand in the celllar. Lovely, lovely people - if you don’t know them, you should really go meet them.
Popped a bottle of this very wine last night with my in-laws over some Indian food. The wine stands up well to the spicy curry and has nice zinfandel fruit offset with a good degree of spiciness. I don’t think I’ve ever opened a bottle of Pedroncelli that I didn’t like. Further I never feel bad sharing a bottle over dinner with my friends and family who are very much into wine.
I’ve got a case or so left at home, and am in for more. For$14 delivered this wine is a great deal to open up on a Tuesday night or with guests.
After my brother’s wedding that I provided 2 cases of wine for has decimated my red wine collection of mostly Scott Harvey’s wine. I need to restock. In for 6 bottles
