description: Hobo has a knack for taking Zinfandel's wild, briary personality and wrestling it to as much elegance as a Dry Creek Zin is capable of. True to form, Hobo accomplishes that. This wine has Zin's brambly spiciness, and never quite overcomes its rusticity, but it is likeable. The penetrating acidity makes it a fine partner with tomato saucy barbecued beef or chicken.
