Good Life Guy’s Wine of the Week:
2011 The Culprit North Coast Red Wine
The “The Culprit” is blended from a whole bunch of different grape varieties. These “kitchen sink” blends are all the rage in California wine these days. The great news is that “The Culprit” is a blend predominantly of Syrah, Zinfandel, and Petite Sirah, with six other varietals thrown into the mix to give it plenty of complexity. This is a big, bold, and intense wine!
