Gallo "Rancho Zabaco" & "Dancing Bull" Sonoma Zinfandel

Those two bottles are now on my desk thanks to a friend who's been in California recently. The Zabaco is a 2003 Reserve and the Dancing Bull is from 2005: any comments about these two zins and vintages? This week I will attend to a BBQ and a traditional Emilia-style dinner (salami, bologna, lasagne with ragout & bechamel, boiled pork & beef with green and red sauces...), any hint about which one to bring in the two events?

LOL, I know, I know... Also here in Italy there are many kinds of BBQ styles and BBQ meats, and this one will be a typical emilian one: sausages, pork chops, lamb chops, unsmoked bacon and veal shoulder chops. Probably the meat will be marinated in red wine with garlic and rosemary, maybe some pepper also. Dressings will be extra virgin olive oil, salt, pepper and the usual sauces you find in a BBQ here around: mayo and dijon mustard, maybe some ketchup. Not that spicy, but tasty.
