Dry Creek Vineyard, Sonoma County (California) Zinfandel 2017

 For me, good Zinfandel is a comforting thing in troubled times, and Dry Creek Vineyard’s Zin is good indeed.   Deeply colored, well balanced and bursting with complex aromas and flavors, it offers suggestions of dark fruit, dry spice and a subtle hint of vanilla.   I love the texture too, especially the way this wine sits enticingly on the tongue.
