Paul does Julia

Even with "good acidity" and "clarity of character," it's tough to imagine success when pairing a Paso Robles Zin with artichokes and lobster. Yikes. Also caught a glimpse of some '82 White Zinfandel in that video; I wonder when they finally decided to kill that line.

Yeah, even a "light" vintage, but it was pushing the envelope in the early 80s I guess.

Dashe makes it, even if Ridge doesn't...which of course makes sense. It's just called late-harvest, though.
