Episode 108 – Zinful Living with Two California Zinfandel’s

Shelley has had a thing for Zinfandel’s lately and so in this episode, we’re going to do a little #ZinfulLiving as we taste through two California Zinfandel’s, one from Lodi and one from Paso Robles. Zinfandel is a wine that goes with many things, from Monday night meatloaf, to Wednesday night pizza to Saturday night barbecue to Thanksgiving turkey. Grab a bottle, pour a glass and taste along with us! #HappyFriday! #ItsWineTime! #Cheersing #NoPoliticsHere #LegsForDays #PartyFoul #EasterEgg
