Some call Zinfandel the American grape. Although it's not from America (it's Croatian in origin), it does seem quite at home in the vineyards of California. During Prohibition, Zinfandel was the favored grape for communion wine, which is why so many old vines are still around today. Zinfandel stands out with its very berry intensity, packed with jammy flavors of blueberries and blackberries. The lower tannins in this wine can accommodate some heat, so ribs with a spicy barbecue sauce are considered almost a classic match. Enjoy three bottles of Zin, with a sampling of BBQ rubs. "Bone" appetit!
