Code Switch is a weekly NPR podcast that explores complex issues of race and identity with unflinching honesty. If a wine has a role to play here, it might be in setting a mood that’s comfortable enough to have uncomfortable conversations. We think this punch-packing Zinfandel is up to the task.
Our winemaking team headed straight for California’s premium Lodi, which is “one of the top wine regions in the country,” where winemakers “have quietly started producing some of the state’s best wines,” writes vinepair.com. Lodi is particularly famous for its Zinfandel and is home to some of the oldest Zin vines in the country. Thanks to the excellent 2017 vintage, these gnarled heirlooms produced intensely ripe, concentrated grapes – aka, the key ingredient for rich, flavorful wine.
While the conversations that Code Switch hosts might be difficult, pairing this luscious Zinfandel with food is easy. With its vibrant blackberry, black cherry, black pepper, and sweet spice aromas and flavors, it’ll be delicious with everything from barbecue to stews to roasted beef, pork, or turkey.
