Why do Zin lovers appreciate good wine such as Duckhorn’s? Let me count the ways: there’s the spiciness, the generous juiciness of red and black fruit, the hints of licorice and graphite, and the soft, seductive tannins. A hefty cocktail on its own or a cheerful and delicious companion to a variety of foods (try it with chili!)–what’s not to like?
