Zinfandel (ZIN-fan-dell): California's native red (nobody's figured out where it came from) and perhaps the world's most versatile wine grape, making everything from blush wine (White Zinfandel), to light, beaujolais-style reds, rich, heavy reds, and even ports; has a zesty, berryish flavor that is perfect for tomato-sauce pastas, pizza, and grilled and barbecued meats.
