Hello group. I occasionally post to this discussion and just want to share my enthusiasm for a relatively new winery called Bella Vineyards in Sonoma County. I recently visited during a weekend in the Dry Creek area and must say they have some of the best Zinfandels I have tasted. In fact, that is all they produce - 5 or so Zins and a Zin Port. I tasted all that they had to offer from their makeshift tasting room (construction is still underway) and they were all rich, spicy, fruity with great body and nice finishes.
Being in the wine industry myself, it is refreshing to find a new 'gem' and I expect great things from these guys. I have no interest in promoting them other than to spread the word about some great zins coming from a new winery and hope some of you will try them for yourself.
