Thomas Henry ‘05 Napa Valley Zinfandel $10.99 btl / $125.29 cs Jeff’s special selection for August. "This little gem is pure and easy pleasure. 100 % Napa Valley ZIN with virtually no tannin and nothing but soft red fruits showing light and warm spice like cinnamon & clove, mild undertones of pepper all in a well balanced (very) drinkable style. What a wonderful summer treat. Serve as a cocktail red on the deck, or with BBQ, and even chocolate dessert."
