I was shocked at how wonderful this wine was.

This is a great everyday Merot. Chewy with the long velvety finish that I enjoy. Not too much fruit, nice balance.

BR Cohn consistently produces above average cabs- this is their entry level red, but for everyday drinking, you won't be disappointed- has character, smooth finish- certainly not as tasty as their reserves, but much better than 90% of california cabs priced under $25

There is no law that says how old a vine has to be to be called old vine but these really are old, over fifty years old in fact. I love this wine because it is a real Zinfandel but the tannins and pepperyness are not so over powering that you can't enjoy it without a meal. Yes this wine is awesome with BBQ but I like to just have a glass when I get home from work. Give it a try, you won't be sorry.

I recently finished reading the novel “A Very Good Year” by Mike Weiss. The novel follows the story of a bottle of Ferari-Carrano Fume Blanc from vine to bottle. I highly recommend the book for any oenophile and I highly recommend picking up a bottle of the book’s protagonist to anyone. The 2007 vintage of the Fume Blanc was wonderfully done. I was able to pick up a bottle for $25, which is a fair price for this wine. As one would expect from a well done Fume Blanc the texture was very light and the alcohol diminutive next to the flavor. The finish is surprisingly long for such a young white. I enjoyed the bottle sans food, but I imagine it would compliment any light fare marvelously.

Very resonably priced. Drinking well right now!

I bought a couple of bottles of this on a whim, while shopping for the ingredients for this year's Thanksgiving feast, and stashed them away in my wine cooler to await the holiday. When the big day arrived I served this wine at table along with roasted turkey, brussels sprouts with bacon and apples, cranberry chutney and other Thanksgiving favourites instead of serving it as an aperitif. My guests and I truly thought this to be a delicious wine that held up to the variety of complex flavours found in such a big, traditional meal. I also served this at an informal Christmas evening at my home and my guests again expressed delight at raising a glass of such a good, yet affordable, wine. I will definitely buy more of this (possibly a case) since it has been such a hit.
