Pick Your Favorite
Wow! Our most successful e-blast yet! All we had to do was challenge your imagination. Thank you for your creative participation in naming our 2010 Zinfandel Blend.
Doctors responded. Famous authors responded. Musicians responded. Other winemakers responded. Financial wizards found time to noodle. Mom, daughter, sisters, nieces, nephews, cousins, in-laws, best friends, insurance brokers, and our dentist responded—over 100 suggestions in all.
Some were funny: Pouty Lips, Toby’s Favorite (accompanied by a picture of dog Toby). Some played on the word “zin:†Zin on a Hot Tin Roof, Whine Not Zin, Original Zin, Zin de Rella. Some elegant: Fidelio, Debutante, Duality. Some visual: Little Yellow Wagon, Moonlight, and Purple Dusk.
We whittled the 100 down to ten possibilities:
| Inheritance | Special Dally | |
| Zinphony | Teacher’s Pet | |
| JAzzin’ | Rock n’ Roll | |
| Perfezione | Entwine | |
| Fizzure | Rin Zin Twin |
Then the three finalists:
| [polldaddy poll=5709527] |
Special Dally suggests a memorable indulgence about to unfold and the play on Anita’s name, Speciale, and mine, D’Alessio, is a witty entendre.
Rin Zin Twin makes us smile every time we say it, though we worry some may think our wine a dog.
JAzzin’ is another clever play on our names: â€J†for Joseph, “A†for Anita, double “z†for the two blended Zinfandels. It is a name that suggests sophistication, entertainment, and joy.
What do you think? Let us know which is your favorite by checking one of the three above finalists. We will consider your choices and announce the winner by December 12th.
Enjoy the holidays. Salute La Famiglia!
