Zinfandel
Los Carneros, Napa Valley
2014
Small but mighty with a whopping 118 cases of the 2014 vintage, Commander Zinskey is saving the reputation of the true American grape. Marvel that this Zinfandel comes from the cool Carneros growing region! Be astonished by its forceful aromas and flavors of red fruits, bramble, cinnamon spice, dried bay leaf, black tea, raspberries and sun dried cherries. Wonder at its nice core of bright acidity that adds zest to its long, pleasant finish and be gobsmacked at how well this Zin works at the table!

Code Orange
The Continuing Adventures of Commander Zinskey!
In the last episode, our fearless Commander found himself in a blue state of mind as the Supreme Leader, Ronald Frump, implemented “Code Orange” - the grand conspiracy to turn the Earth into a Frumpian nightmare. The Commander could no longer stand by and watch as nature emitted a death rattle of hurricanes, floods, drought, fires, record temperatures and rising oceans. Even the air in the usually pristine Pacific Northwest became orange and toxic.
As the Earth turned from blue and green to an unnatural Frumpian orange color, the Commander became convinced the only hope for the survival of the planet would be to travel back in time to the year 2016, create a common-sense, science-based third party and run for president of the USA… but he did not foresee an oncoming storm!
While the Commander prepared his spaceship for the journey back in time, one of Frumps Amazonian concubines, Stormy Spaniels, broke free of her contractual shackles and, with just her gaze as her weapon, began to destroy everything Frump in sight. Thinking she had stumbled across one of Frumps Space Force rockets, she focused her laser eyes upon it. The Commander could only watch in horror as the last candle of hope prematurely ignited.

Simpler Times
When I was growing up in a large multi-generational family, no meal was simpler than grilled, smoke-kissed sausages smothered with softly caramelized, sweet, juicy peppers and onions all tucked into a nice chewy crusty Italian roll. It was pure pleasure at first bite. Sweet peppers and grilled sausages form the perfect platform for the brambly and black raspberry notes of the Commander Zinskey. Tasting is believing!
Until the next wine…

The 2014 adventure of Commander Zinskey is a beacon of hope. Grown on the top of the organically farmed Vandal Vineyard in the foothills of the Carneros, this little secret spot was once considered too cool for Zinfandel but Team RSV felt different and bucked the trend by producing spicy, complex Zin that actually worked at the table. The 2014 vintage provided an ideal, long growing season (picked September 20th, 2014) and a relatively small crop for a full flavored Zin with layers of complexity.
