I really like Legrein. A lesser known varietal that is grown in Paso Robles.
BIG fan of a full bodied Cabernet, but sometimes I come across a Merlot that I love!
My favorite varietal is Zinfadel Woppa!
Sangiovese for me.
Syrah
buttery rich chardonnays
Zinfandel! Love some Ravenswood for the price.
Merlot, Cabernet and Syrah for me :D
I love a good primativo :-)
