Boho Vineyards, California (United States) Old Vine Zinfandel 2008

Aug 23, 2010

By Marguerite Thomas

 Although it’s a tad too sweet to truly suit my palate, there’s much to be said in favor of this wine and its 3 liter container.  Look at the price: $24 for the box, or the equivalent of $6 each for four 750 ml. bottles.  Granted, bad Zin is worth zip, but this one has all the jammy, spicy, bouncy, plummy notes one might expect from old vine Zinfandel, along with a touch of eucalyptus for added intrigue.  With an alcohol level at a respectable 13.7% this wine should find lots of fans.
