Shame that you will not be blogging on wines any longer. You have a really nice conversational style.

I love everything you’ve written here. I sometimes find myself behind the tasting bar, explaining to people that test—zinfandel *can* age! It just has to be the right zin at the right time.

I’ve found zins usually age best when they’re a bit acidic at the beginning of their bottled life. The acid gives them structure and as it dissipates, so does that overtly fruity brightness that some people don’t associate with “fine red wines.”

I think part of the issue is that zin is so fruit-forward and approachable in its youth that it appeals to the beginning wine drinker demographic, and then the big Bordeaux drinkers think it’s not “their style.”

Anyway, great post! Hug is an awesome winery, and Augie is a great guy.
