Member's Choice: Zinfandel

This month, we’re exploring Zinfandel—the American standard-bearer with Croatian roots—known for ripe blackberry and plum, peppery spice, and a generous, sometimes jammy finish that shines with grilled fare. Expect range: from brighter, spice-driven styles to fuller, plush expressions; we’ll talk fruit, spice, alcohol balance, and why Zin loves barbecue and bold flavors. Bring a bottle (valued at $20+) to share and compare, and discover how region and winemaking shape the glass. Sip, savor, and connect with fellow wine lovers in a fun, interactive tasting. $8 per person. Registration encouraged.
