The Improviser - Red Table Wine

The art of creating music spontaneously without the aid of a written manuscript. The Improviser is the result of my passions and stimulus of the moment: the creation of a delicious blend whilst tasting and experimenting with several different wines. A blend of Zinfandel, Mourvedre, Barbera, Cabernet, Petite Sirah, and Merlot, this wine is like a great swing tune. You start listening and all of a sudden you find your feet tapping in time with the music, but in this case, it is your taste buds! So, pour a glass and let your taste buds start tapping with joy as you savor the flavors. It is hip, happening and definitely in the pocket!

2009  R&B Cellars Zinfandel, Zydeco Zinfandel

Deep aromas of blackberry, black raspberry, cherry, black cherry and plum, surrounded by chocolate, toasty vanilla, exotic spice and delicious oak, with hints of earth and a wonderful fleshy character. This is what you would expect from a Napa Zinfandel: dark, black, jammy fruits supported by a good complement of oak, ending in a firm but balanced finish that lingers on the tongue. 94 points Just Wine

2010 R&B Cellars Zinfandel, Zydeco, Napa Valley

From the beautiful Bingham Ranch on the floor of Napa Valley just outside of Calistoga, this wine is typical of a Napa Zinfandel - dark, rich, and intense! Blackberries and dark black cherries greet your senses in this rich, extracted wine. The brand new French oak the wine is lovingly aged in is the perfect compliment to the fruit, adding hints of chocolate and toasty vanilla tones and exotic spice in the finish. The wine starts with an initial explosion of black fruit, and then opens layer upon layer of rich fruit and spice, to a long and mouth filling finish.

2010 and 2011 Allegrezza Zinfandel

"Allegrezza" means joyful: named as such because we know this Zin will make your taste buds jump for joy. The aromatics leap from the glass and the mix of bright and dark berry fruit immediately excites the palate. Allegrezza hails from the Harris Kratka Vineyard, which has long been producing stellar, award-winning Zinfandel. Tucked away in Alexander Valley, this vineyard produces small berry clones that benefit from extended hang time for the perfect ripeness producing rich, dark Zinfandel. $30
