Yes, someone was asking about Bogle Merlot a few months ago and I
mentioned they make a great Zinfandel. Here in Nevada I can buy it at
supermarkets on sale sometimes for $8 or $9. We're usually screwed on
our wine selections because of restrictions that all wines have to go
through wholesalers (wine stores can't buy direct) but I guess there
can be benefits sometimes being so close to California.
Not quite a fruit bomb, but some good flavors.
