Just the other night, we attended the Viva Amore! event at Rock Wall. They weren't really pouring any zins at tasting tables aside from their Zinfandel Dessert wine. I never bother with those except tonight we were tipped off to try a "Rebecca" -- a glass of sparkling Blanc de Blancs with a heavy splash of the aforementioned dessert zin.

Well, this St. Peter's Church tastes a lot like that dessert zin... DARK CHERRIES and peppery. It's bold and beautiful (typical RW) with perfectly balanced body. I wouldn't say it's tooooo sweet but it does taste like Early Desert, kind of like an early 70's Cannonball Adderly show where he opens with "Hummin'." You know, the sweetest kickoff.... early desert. With room leftover for desert.
