A wee BloodyPulpit:
1. This is the latest release of the DCV Heritage Zin. It is a bit bigger & shows more depth than previous Heritage Zins. May be, just maybe, their best Heritage Zin yet.
You can find this discounted if you look around to around $16/btl. We got a bunch here in NM at $13.50 w/ discount. I am a bad person for buying a wine thise good at that low a price.
