“Zerba Cellars has rapidly gained critical accolades, and wines like the 2004 Columbia Valley “Wild Z” are why. Its scents of plum fruit and vanilla are clear and bright, as are its lively and concentrated flavors of plum, cassis, cinnamon and vanilla. This is a concentrated wine with great character, a bargain at $19!” - Northwest Palate Magazine, January 2007
