Even better is the 2006 Zinfandel La Promessa, which offers loads of peppery, black cherry, and kirsch fruit, a dense, full-bodied mouthfeel, and a heady finish. This Zinfandel is best drunk in the first 3-4 years of life. Ed Sbragia, the highly renowned winemaker at Beringer, has settled into his own operation, producing just over 5,000 cases of reds and whites that focus on Sbragia’s strengths, Cabernet Sauvignon and Chardonnay. He is also experimenting with small quantities of Zinfandel and Sauvignon Blanc.Tel. (866) 222-4342
