I am surprised to read you don't like California wines.  If you drink 
Zinfandel (I don't refer to the blush soda pop crap), but the earthy full red 
wines of Amador County, etc.  There is nothing like a 100 year old vine Zin.  
Not to mention some of our Cabernets, etc.  Of course my palate is tuned to 
Cotes de Rhone, Bordeaux, Tuscany, and lovely Shiraz from Oz, and thus love 
California's artisanal vin.

There is nothing more synergistic with Chile laced food than an old vine Zin. 
 IMHO

Hint stay away from screw tops you might find a California wine you might 
like. 

 Considering that Mondavi won 1st place in blind tastings against the French 
wines in the International Paris Competitions-they must be doing something 
right.
