Steele 2008 Zinfandel (Mendocino County) – Soft and supple. As round and smooth a zinfandel as I’ve ever tasted, its fruit light but rich. I suppose it reeks of crafting-for-the-market, but there’s some really excellent craft here. And as the “market” does need something to drink, this would fit the bill as well as anything. (1/12)
