Frugal Wino reviewed Gnarly Head Old Vine Zin 2006. (4/5)
On May 12

Gnarly Head Old Vine Zin 2006 Lodi Zinfandel We really like this old vine zinfandel. It's a hit with BBQ ribs. Lots of bang for the buck at $9.99 or so. Big robust aroma on the nose a...

Gnarly Head Old Vine Zin 2006

"I like everything from a robust Cabernet Sauvignon, a toasty vanilla buttery Chardonnay to my favorite a sweet white Muscadine from a winery about 30mi from my house.

Muscadines grow wild in areas of Fl and I used to pick them as a kid. There is still a little stand of them on the 9th hole at the clubs golf course near a bike path.

I still stop by and grab a few sometimes lol. "

On Mar 12

One of my favorite Chard's despite it's less than 90 rating by Connoisseurs' Guide, Feb 08 (they gave it an 85). Wine Spectator gave it a 90. I give it a two thumbs up! Bright...

Frugal Wino reviewed Blackstone Winery Chardonnay Reserve 2006. (4/5)
On Mar 12

Very nice with floral & tropical fruit flavors. Nice long silky slightly buttery finish. Best to let breathe about an hour. Not the exquisite buttery finish of a high end Chard but close...
