NPR Wait Wait Don’t Tell Me Zinfandel 2022
This delicious red hails from the Zinfandel Capital of the World…Wait, Wait, Don’t Tell Me!…Lodi, California. It’s as flavorful as the Listener Limerick Challenge and more satisfying than acing the Lightning Fill-in-the-Blank.

Beyond the Label

Made in celebration of NPR’s satirical news quiz, Wait Wait...Don’t Tell Me!, this Lodi Zinfandel is one of the best we’ve tasted—and we’re not even trying to Bluff the Listener.

Time for a Lightning Fill-in-the-Blank: This is known as the Zinfandel Capital of the World. If you guessed Lodi, congratulations. This Napa-rivaling wine region is predominantly gnarly, tree-like Zinfandel vines, some of the oldest in all of California. Their low yields make for extra-concentrated fruit and wines of remarkable intensity.

In the glass, you’ll enjoy a dazzling array of flavor (a trademark of Zinfandel). There’s deliciously ripe blackberry, cherry, plum and strawberry notes, with soft tannins and a long, smooth finish. It’s a fantastic pick for all kinds of barbecue and roasted meats (turkey is an especially fine choice).

However you plan to enjoy this sensational Zin, don’t wait to order your share. Limited cases available.
