>Zinfandel just does not have the finesse, smoothness, and subtlety that the finest cabs and clarets do.>
Sorry but I must disagree with this statement. Try the Ridge Lytton Springs, or some of Turley's or Rosenblum's finest. Zins also have sufficient fruit that they don't require food to bring out their best qualities.
What zinfandel lacks is the pedigree, years of history and the long term aging potential of the finest cabs, Bordeauxs and Burgandies.
