Save $22 a bottle on the 91-93 point Tin Barn Vineyards Los Chamizal Vineyard Moon Mountain Zinfandel.
Tin Barn Zinfandel has pretty much legendary status around here. The winery’s Gilsson Vineyard Zinfandel is probably our most requested deal by readers. And while we don’t have the Gilsson Zin for you today, we do have the return of another delicious Zin that comes from the Los Chamizal Vineyard in the Moon Mountain District of Sonoma.
The Moon Mountain District and its famed volcanic soil is situated between Sugarloaf Ridge and Los Carneros on the slopes of the Mayacamas mountains – Moon Mountain is on the western slopes while Mount Veeder is on the eastern slopes.
The Los Chamizal vineyard, planted in the late 1970s, features the famed Monte Rosso clone of Zinfandel. The result of these wonderful grapes combined with the skill of winemaker Michael Lancaster and 15 months in French and Hungarian oak barrels (10% new) is an absolutely delicious Zinfandel.
Normally retailing for $42 a bottle, we’re slashing that price dramatically for the next day…
Today’s deal gets you 4 bottles of the 2023 Tin Barn Vineyards Los Chamizal Moon Mountain Zinfandel for $79.95 ($19.99/bottle). That’s a discount of 52%, saving you $22 a bottle!

Summer 2026 Shipping Info
Shipping is a flat $9.99 per order, no matter how many packs you buy. This applies to both Summer Shipments AND Summer Holds. Summer Shipments also have an additional charge built into the product price for the heat protection package. Here’s how it works:
Summer Ship (+$8 for the Heat Protection Package) – Packages ship in styrofoam and use refrigerated shipping. This includes refrigerated trucks to local hubs for the South, Midwest and East Coast and internal refrigeration (ice packs) in boxes for the West Coast (AZ, CA, ID, NV, OR, WA). Final delivery will be on regular UPS trucks without refrigeration (just like last year), thus the reason for the styrofoam.
Note that unlike last year, packages will not go 2-day air as the refrigerated trucks are a better option, however this will add additional transit time. Trucks will only pick up from our shipper once per week so with our normal order processing time of up to 10 days before orders are sent out, packages will likely take anywhere from 2-3 weeks to arrive in-home.
These orders have an additional cost of $8 built into the product price for this Heat Protection Package. It is NOT possible (nor would it be advisable!) to purchase a deal with summer shipping without also including the Heat Protection Package.
Summer Hold – Buy your wine now and have your shipment held in a temperature controlled warehouse for delivery in October! While we take every precaution we can with our Summer Shipping protocol, we also know that many of you travel or live in very hot areas where you don’t want to risk it (or you simply detest styrofoam).
Please note this is not a “ship-at-will” program, all your summer hold orders will ship (in cardboard/no styrofoam) at a date of our choosing in mid-October once temperatures have cooled down. Please read this post for important info to determine if the Summer Hold program is right for you.
If this is your first time ordering please check out the shipping section of our FAQ for more information.
For your convenience you also have the option to select a UPS Store/Access Point to ship to at checkout (with no additional pickup fee) so you don’t have to be home to sign! For Summer Hold orders whatever shipping location option you choose at checkout (ship to home or ship to UPS Store/Access Point) will apply in October.

The 2023 Tin Barn Vineyards Los Chamizal Moon Mountain Zinfandel opens with a wonderful aroma of black cherry and other brambly dark fruit plus spice, licorice, some minty wintergreen notes and a touch of earthiness. It’s an excellent start.
Tasting the wine reveals it to be smooth, juicy, spicy and deep. It features similar flavors to the nose, just be sure to give it some time to breathe as it gains layers and complexity as it does.
It ends dry and a bit grippy on the quite long and lingering finish. It was just as good on day 2. This is lovely!
Cheers,
Jon

“ I only drink Reverse Wine Snob wine, it actually doesn’t make sense to buy from a store. You don’t get anything interesting, unique, and full of value otherwise.”
“Jon, I should have bought more! Delicious!!”

“Hey Jon! You do great work. I’ve bought a bunch of the Insider Deals and probably 80% of the wine I drink comes from them. Great values!”
“The shipping on the Insider Deals is another great part of the deal. We recently paid $27 to a winery in California to ship 6 bottles (same packaging as the insider deals)….yikes!”
“Just got my 6 bottles and having my first glass. WHY, WHY didn’t I buy a case??!!”

“By the way, you guys have a great company – smart concept, well executed. I may never have to make another trek to the wine store again. And your customer service is pretty darn good. Thank you. ”
“I am very much enjoying the wines I have been getting from you. I have discontinued all other wine services as the quality of the wines you select seem superior to what I was receiving elsewhere.”
“That’s tremendous…I wish I had tripled my order.”
“I’ve bought a ridiculous amount of wine from your deals in the last year…I just want to say that I really appreciate what you guys have done with RWS. I discovered your site looking up Costco wine reviews and have been hooked on your insider deals ever since. I’ve been referring every friend I know.”
“I recently took advantage of your offer. So glad I did, and now sorry I did not buy more (like all those quotes on your website!)”
