| NV Zenaida Cellars US Red Blend "ZC Red" Winery: Zenaida Cellars Vintage: NV Wine Name/Vineyard: "ZC Red" Wine Category: US Red Blend Grape blend: 56% Cabernet Sauvignon, 25% Merlot, & 19% Cabernet Franc Region: Paso Robles State or country: CA Price: $18 Cases produced: 520 KWG Score: 88 (based on 1 review) Ken's Wine Rating: Very Good (89.99-87) Review date: April 16, 2007 Wine Review: I like fun red wines that are affordable and easy to enjoy. I came across this good value wine at a recent tasting of Paso Robles wines. This wine has a fresh fruit influenced bouquet. On the palate, the wine is round, has nice flavors, and is tasty. This wine is a good match for grilled foods lathered in barbeque sauce. The finish is dry and quite prolonged. Enjoy this wine – Ken Winemaker Notes: ZC Red is true to it’s namesake, straight forward uncomplicated red wine for everyday occasions. It is not uncommon for small producers have a stock of "house wine" that they drink on a regular basis, usually unlabeled blends taken straight from the barrel. ZC Red is just that, our everyday house red, only bottled to share. The blend is 56% Cabernet Sauvignon, 25% Merlot, and 19% Cabernet Franc grown entirely on the home vineyard, open top fermented and barrel aged. The Merlot adds a strong fruit element, and the Cabernet franc Lends a more delicate fruit and spice. Organic status: not organic Buy it: Use 1000 Corks to find stores that sell .
