As far as wine goes, to me, nothing is sexier than a full bodied red. But when a friend recently recommended a very special Zinfandel…well, the name alone was enough to send me racing to my local wine shop to pick up a bottle. The Seven Deadly Zins is blended from grapes from seven growers in Lodi, a region known for uncommonly good zin, making made this wine a sinfully perfect Valentine’s Day accompaniment for a romantic evening.
