As noted in an earlier post this week (found here: ZAP, Bob Dylan, and The Greatest Tasting Note Movie Ever Shot), us card-carrying members of The Zee Party are gearing up for the oenophilic equivalent of a party convention; in this case, our PARTY Convention! Meaning, we’re getting ready for ZAP!
ZAP refresher required? Sure! ZAP! (Which is kind of like Shazam! Except with wine …)

Anyhow, in advance of festiviticus commencementitus, I sat down with winemaker Eric Baugher to taste through some of the wines we’ll be showcasing at this year’s event: some barrel samples, some bottled-but-not-yet-released offerings, a current vintage flagship, and a limited-production winery-only release.
Stay tuned for tomorrow, when I’ll be posting tasting notes, but in the meantime, here’s the pictorial record of how it all went down!
