We made some grilled lamb chops and I needed a wine with enough heft to stand up to these beauties. Easy choice - Markus “Blue” from @markuswineco in Lodi. This big, bold ballsy wine - 90% Zin - is 16.5% of unapologetic alcohol and almost a meal in itself. A smooth wine for that much abv - nice use of oak but not overdone.

I’ve enjoyed a number of @MarkusWineCo wines—including those made at Borra—and thrilled to try the new lineup of limited-production reserve reds, all Lodi-grown. The first thing you notice about these wines is the attractive packaging. Thanks to a partnership with University of the Pacific art students, the bottles always stand out. The good news is the juice inside the bottle has always been just as exciting as the striking label art. Check out what winegrower Markus Niggli is crafting at markuswine.com. Cheers wine friends! #winelover #Lodi #LodiWine #wine #cawine

Such a gorgeous wine. Nutty and briar-sharp with a touch of petrol in the nose. 5-spice is strong. Clean and ripe in the mouth, salted licorice and an angsty sharp note up top before more petrol shows up in the finish. Lovin every minute of it. 2015 @markuswineco DOMO #Carignan #PetiteSirah #syrah 75/15/10 #lodiwine #california 13.8 #zieherglass https://www.instagram.com/p/B9BL642HTi4/?igshid=11wp57c8h72y0

We enjoyed a 2-hour tasting and talking session with Markus Niggli of Markus Wine Company. We loved our time with Markus, clearly one of the most interesting personalities in wine. Honest, opinionated, driven, committed to making genuine wines. . . . . We tasted 4 whites and 5 reds and found them all to be high quality wines. Beyond that, though, Markus’ wines were incredibly inventive and unique. The Rose pictured was a blend of Syrah and Carignane - definitely our first pink wine from these two grapes. . . . . As you can see from the second picture, Markus makes a white wine whose principal ingredient is the Kerner grape. The vineyard Markus sources Kerner from in Lodi is the only Kerner vineyard in the entire state of California. We’ll be posting a blog article about Markus this weekend and will have several of the Markus wines for sale on our site: www.toppchines.com . . . #wine #winetasting #winetourism #winecountry #winelover #wineglass #winenot #wineoclock #lodi #lodiwinecountry #lodiwine #lodiwines #lodiwineries #markuswineco #markusniggli #winestagram #instawine #zinfandel #rosewine #kernerwine #gerwurtztraminer #cawine #winemaker #creativewine #winelovers #whitewine #redwine #vino (at Lodi, California)

We enjoy the compelling white wines from @MarkusWineCo. A signature freshness and raciness runs through the portfolio. These wines pair wonderfully with food and are equally enjoyable on their own. Cheers! #wine #winelover #mouthwatering #Torrontés #Riesling #LodiWine #Lodi #myvinespot

Crazy dark cherry dessert oily sauteed black raspberry nose loaded with liqueur bar-fight instigation and round ass-fondling curvature over a stretched leather your hand grazes bit never quite settles down on to. Perfectly-pitched acid and grainy balance in hi-octane voluptuousness so sexy and pointedly un-demure you need her number and WILL call late after the bar closes--don't wait til tomorrow! An un-shy Petite Sirah/Syrah/Mourvedre blend so curvaceous your current date will look at you weird when you feign un-attraction. Have you HAD these Lodi's from Markus?!?!? Time to trade up. Lodi has a new guard and you've never looked at central valley girls the same way before. 2015 @MARKUSWINECO 'Sol' #petitesirah #syrah #Mourvedre #lodiwine 14-9 (at Markus Wine Co.) https://www.instagram.com/p/BrPM6ydAjSu/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1f0q34gfwtfcy
