Rosenblum Cellars 2007 "Rockpile Road Vineyard" Zinfandel, CA

Ken's Wine Rating: Very Good+ (90)
Price: $35
KWG Score: 91.6
No. Professional Ratings: 3
# of Cases: 5,429
This very dark garnet colored Zin was very well received by our tasting panel. It opens with a black cherry bouquet with a hint of oak and black pepper. On the palate, this wine is medium bodied, balanced and savory. The flavor profile is a smoky oak infused black raspberry with notes of black pepper. The finish is dry and its tannins build up and linger for quite a while. The panel thought this Zin would be a great match with seasoned pork tenderloin or a veal chop. Enjoy – KWGTP

    Petite Sirah! One of My favorite grapes! When made right, it can be extraordinary and it is hardly Petite. It is big and bold and in your face. However, the best Petite Sirahs have a great mouthfeel and show some elegance as well. This post will highlight some of the best Petite Sirahs that we have recently tried.

    Who is Ken?

    Who is Ken and what is this website about? The concept of "Ken’s Wine Buying Guide" originated in February 1998 with the first recorded "Ken’s Boston Wine Expo Notes." These "notes" evolved dramatically from the original 15 wines Ken Hoggins recommended in a 36+ page Microsoft Word document sent quarterly to friends and family as recently as the spring of 2006. Over the years many friends had suggested making "Ken’s Wine Buying Guide" available online for those near and far to have easy access to it. In the summer of 2006, we began to create www.KensWineGuide.com, going live in the fall of 2006. To read more of the history of Ken's Wine Guide, click on About Us.
