Wine Intermission....

My wiNe reView foR tHe weEk oF January 4, 2008

So this one is an Old Vine California Red Zinfandel of 2006 by Bogle Vinyards. It has a deep rich taste and a perfect balance of fruit and strength. Here is how the makers describe it:
        The old-head trained vines are unique because they produce a smaller crop of fruit that is unusually rich and concentrated. A wine that gifts intense blackberry, black cherry, and raspberry flavors, wrapped in a smooth blanket of vanilla and oak.

This one went perfectly with my leftovers from last night's dinner outing to Bamiyan, a delicious Afghani Restaurant at 26th st. and third avenue. I really like Bamiyan; it has a laid back atmosphere and optional floor seating, if you prefer a more authentic type situation. Their wine selection is limited, but eat you leftovers with a glass of Bogle Red Zin and you are good to go!
