Yeah that’s what I just did. The barbera does sound interesting. Too bad one of the Zins wasn’t replaced with their Syrah. That would be a nice variety.
I’m from Napa. Scott Harvey makes great wines. Old vine Zins are full-bodied and go well with high acid foods like tomato-based sauces, rich meats etc. They are complex wines but most people quite enjoy them. I’m in for the set.
Looks very good, though, particulary the Barbera and the CT ratings for these wines are pretty impressive, though obviously need to be taken with a grain of salt.
It would be cool if at some point CT would have an engine like Netflix where it would telll you how accurate it thought a person’s rating was relative to you based on your previous ratings and ratings of others, etc.
After 3 weeks of telling the GF I’m done buying wine until after our trip, I finally can say it to her and mean it. The zins are attractive to me but the other bottle just doesn’t sound like something that would suit my taste. I still look forward to the labrats reports but no amount of arm twisting will work this week. I think.
