How could you have passed over the zinfandels of The Robert Biale Vineyard? Made by vineyard and its unique terroir. What about the other zinfandel vintners who started ZAP?
Great article. About twenty five years ago, a good friend pulled out seven or eight older Cabs from his cellar, mostly from the ‘70’s with a mystery wine. Our dinner group tasted them blind and all were wonderful. The winner was a 1964 Louis Martini Zinfandel. What a nice surprise. It was much like a Claret as you described in the fine article.

I wouldn’t refer to it as passing over (there is a long list of excellent examples), but more like setting the stage for future articles. ;)
