Retail $16. Very Responsible bottle (495g; 1lb 1.4oz). Under cork. I was doing a bit of research for an upcoming tasting I am doing: New World vs. Old World. I had chosen a couple of Sauvignon Blancs to start and then opted for a Primitivo/Zinfandel comparison. I grabbed this off the shelf. Popped. Poured. Yum. Medium color, good fruit, spice, and a bit of earth. Well. And I have to say, closer to a "Whoa" than I would have thought when I plucked this from the middle shelf of my H-E-B (I love my H-E-B). Yeah, we may have a winner here for the tasting. And at thirteen bucks? Yeah, Bingo.
