  August 17, 2019 - Zinfandel Tasting (San Diego Wine Co.): N: Barnyd blowing off to RIPE berries, poss with notes of ethanol?
  
  P: Med, poss LM, body; Nice, ALMOST swtish frt (threshold R.S.?) met by an astringent pucker which fairly seamlessly, pretty much works itself out by the LONG, balanced finish with a tangy/swtness to the fairly unoffensive, dusty tannins. For now & into '21. 14.8% ABV; My EXC-/EXC, the higher *if* one's focus is QPR for a R.S. style for drinking NOW. [This vendor's (closeout?) $8.99 is a bit > 1/3 the price of wine-searcher's only listed source!]

  May 25, 2019 - Taste BBQ Wines (San Diego Wine Co.): N: An intriguing melding of funk, spice, & cherries
  
  P: LM, poss Med, body; RNDISH entry with NICE, ALMOST swtish frt (suspect threshold R.S.) met by an astringent pucker which QUITE resolves by the LONG, tangy/swt finish to the FEW, dusty tannins & a POSS *hint* of quasi-bitter flatness? For NOW & through '20? My VG+/EXC-, & I'd imagine one COULD make an argument for the higher based upon this vendor's (closeout?) $8.99 for a wine that wine-searcher's only source wants 3x as much!
