Mission Codename Owl always love Zin
With so many wines offered to us each and every day, we can afford to be exceedingly careful - and extraordinarily picky - when it comes to selecting which wines we feature for you. We are so picky that we reject about one third of the wines that we review.
Big brand, award-winning wines certainly get our attention, but when a lesser-known brand finds its way to our tasting panel, we approach it with an excited open mind - and palate. Today’s Wise Villa Winery 2011 California Estate Zinfandel turned out to be… fantastic!
This delicious wine, which has earned numerous accolades and is a Zinfandel that is well worthy of your attention. We offer this wonderful wine to you with our hearty recommendation.
