    OP
    Quoted from Daditude:

    I was asked my advice about peppery zinfandels in another thread, so I will copy my response below for any Zin lovers.
    "2018 Brandlin Vineyard Old Vine Zinfandel is tremendous with a fantastic peppercorn finish.
    Limerick Lane is producing some of the best zinfandels made. Absolutely worth getting into for any Zin fan. They have numerous vintages and styles worth cellaring.
    If you don't mind red blends, I highly recommend 8 years in the desert by Orin Swift. It is a zinfandel dominant blend with secondary and tertiary varietals of syrah and petit sirah, respectively. Dave Phinney is the winemaker behind it. He is widely considered the best red blend maker in the world."

    Thank you very much!! I know most people don’t like the idea of a peppercorn taste to wine, but IMO it is an excellent pairing with steaks.

    Quoted from Kkuoppamaki:

    WA is not as appreciated as a wine state as CA is but we have some pretty good wines here. I’m blessed to have 100+ wineries and tasting rooms about 15 mins from where I live. If you are looking for a pointers on good WA wines let me know (and Chateau St Michelle is not one I’d recommend, except the sparkling wine)

    D2 from DeLille is one of my favorites from WA.
