Tasting- Beliveau Estate Winery Rainbow (Zinfandel)
Name: Beliveau Estate Winery Rainbow, Zinfandel
Variety: 100% Zinfandel
Region: Borra Vineyard, San Joaquin, CA
Country: USA
Year: 2011
Price: $26
Winery review: Rainbow is our "peppery" old-vine Zin. Along with the traditional aspects of Zinfandel, you will find that Rainbow is not too bold and will not overpower your food pairings. It pairs best with beef, lasagna, Italian sausage, stroganoff, red sauces, and burgers! One thing to keep in mind is that Rainbow will strongly enhance "saltiness" and "pepperiness", so it is especially great for folks who are cutting back on their sodium intake!
My review: A lighter Zinfandel with aromas of berries, such as raspberry. There was a slight peppery taste. Overall, a good wine.
I tasted this on its own with no food.
