Frog’s Leap Zinfandel 2004 California, USA

Slinky, a bit glitzy, satisfyingly smooth with subtle oak (think cake spice) and rich round blue and black berry flavours made this red a terrific Saturday night treat. Mathias made a delicious lasagna (with black olives, sun-dried tomato, mushrooms and lots of ricotta cheese etc..) that worked wonders with the wine. Highly recommended and actually worth the price…. Stockist: Berry Bros & Rudd, Waitrose, £19.99
