Savvy wine buy: Mariah ‘97
Wednesday, July 12, 2000 | 9:06 a.m.
Max Jacobson
Zinfandel is a grape indigenous to California, and the wines it yields, bright, spicy and lingering, number among the most powerful and penetrating from any varietal. This rising star, released in late 1999, is a relatively high 14.3 percent alcohol, and softened by a blending of 10 percent Syrah. This is a hearty, intense wine that will stand up to the gamiest flavors. The mouth is peppery and rich, and has the typical hint of raspberry common to all great Zinfandels.
Available at Spirits Plus and Lee's Discount Liquors, $29.99.
