Hey Everyone! On today’s podcast I am taking you to NY for an intimate tasting with the Zinfandel Advocates & Producers  better known as (ZAP) and owner of corkbuzz Laura Fiorvanti. The event was held at Corkbuzz NYC and its purpose was to help explore Zinfandel’s place on the world stage of wine, preserving legendary Zinfandel vineyards in California and why Zinfandel is, according to those passionate about the variety, one of the most versatile food wines out there.

Mike and I have enjoyed Zinfandel for a long time. We didn’t jump on the bandwagon, we pretty much were in front of it. There are so many expressions of this grape, and this wine tasting demonstrated that.
