Seghesio Zinfandel Sonoma 2014 Bottle
Seghesio Zinfandel Sonoma 2014

tasted May 2018, with a bacon-wrapped, pan seared filet mignon. Fantastic. Nose of dark fruit and spice. Well developed flavours and strong finish. If I could change anything, it would be the number of bottles I purchased! Sadly only one, as this had legs for years.

Poeira Dusty 2010, Doc Douro Bottle
Poeira Dusty 2010, Doc Douro
Douro, Portugal
$16.75

Dusty is appropos. Dry and tannic, in the manner of a Barolo. This was good, but I really did not pick up any fruit notes. I think it may have benefited from another year in the cellar to round it out a bit. Definitely worth the discount bin price of $16.75.
Needs a salty steak to go with.
