    Comic(ish) wine

    Woot had some interesting bottles of Zinfandel for you red lovers out there.

    I love the wine and the bottles were pretty interesting/nerdy to boot.

    A couple other good names:
    Cardinal Zin (top notch zinfandel from -yes, Cardinal winery)
    I think there is a 7 Deadly Zins too.
    Pinot Evil (drawing of three wise monkeys on the label- should have added a fourth grabbing his crotch)
    Marilyn Merlot- different Monroe picture each year- dispite the gimmac and high price, supposed to be pretty good.
    Melange a Trois- very fruity and easy drinking blend (Vons had it on sale for $6.99 this week).
    I add new pictures to my photo gallery pretty regularly. You can see them here if you are interested: http://www.pbase.com/jeffryz

    I've had it, and I considered it aptly named: it was evil stuff.

    I've tasted Cardinal Zin and 7 Deadly Zins (as well as Melange a Trois - might even have a bottle of it in the basement), and thought they were quite nice.
    stay low... keep moving...

    I've also had 7 Deadly Zins - very tasty, and I think it has a higher alcohol content than normal (14%, IIRC)

    Also had the Melange a Trois at a party recently - not too bad. It's cheap & makes for a good conversation starter!

    I bought 2 3-packs of this. One to keep for a while, and one to break out for company.

    I just want to say I've been championing 7 Deadly Zins since 2005.

    That is all.
