Agapi's July 5th Wine Tasting
Several of the recent wine tastings have come down to a tie breaking vote by the tasters. Tres Sabores, a 2019 Zinfandel from Rutherford Vineyards Napa California is not just old vine (vines must be 35 years or older to be called "old vine"), and it is not just Estate sourced grapes (95% must be that grape variety from that specific area), it was produced by one of the best grower/makers in the wine world, Julie Johnson. Something almost magical happens to the Zinfandel grape when the vines past the age of 40ish, and when those grapes are treated properly from vine to bottle you get an exceptional wine. Deep dark fruit that you could drink by itself or with a great burger. Mark your calendars for Agapi's next wine tasting on the first Tuesday of August.
