Shop Review: This White Zinfandel has a beautiful pink salmon color and crisp acidity. The wine shows juicy fruit flavors of strawberry and cherry, with a tangy sweet finish. Pairs well with mild cheeses, crab cakes, and spicy Asian cuisine.
My Review: From the first whiff, I knew this was my kind of wine. It smelled like grape juice, so I knew immediately it was sweet. I also could smell a bit of a honeydew or melon smell, along with a summer fruit like berries. The taste of it wasn't very acidy but it had a nice crisp, honey taste. Compared to my typical preference of Moscato, it was a bit fresher and not as in your face sweet.
I went with the recommendation of drinking this wine with some mild cheese and my family and I enjoyed it with some mild cheddar, swiss, and some leftover brie.
