Mo Zin is elaborate here in California, concretely in Sonoma County. It is a great combination of different grapes, a secret blend of Zinfandel, Mourvedre, Carignane and Petite Sirah. I have to confess that I'm cheese addict and this wine matches perfectly! I'm not sure what I think about its label. The type reminds me of Papirus (not a fashion and stylish font) and the image looks like a lino cut of mountains. The label's form is not rectangular, it looks like a mask (wide in the top and narrow at the bottom). And the off white background is so old style: a bit more of modern design!! In general some wineries keep their designs really traditional, because they want to keep this long tradition values from a family of wine makers and bla bla bla... Ok, it's cool to have hundred years of experience, but there are tones of winemakers without this long experience with great and sophisticated ideas. This concept should be also transmited in the label and some wineries they are stuck with the view of tradition. CHANGE! WE NEED A CHANGE!!!
Note: the image is not the same wine that I drunk, however, the label is the same

Me parece muy interesante el coupage q han hecho. Las uvas mouverdre y carignan son mediterraneas, pero en spain suelen mezclarse con garnatxa o foraneas francesas, como la petit verdot, q aporta acidez, como han hecho en este vino. No conozco ningun coupage de estas uvas con la zinfandel q es desconocida aqui. Me gustaria probar este vino.
