What to Expect

Zinfandel is considered America's own great indigenous grape, even though its origins lie on the Adriatic coast. Planted throughout California and the Pacific Northwest, Zinfandel is at its best in warm regions with cooler temperatures during harvest. The wines can range from off-dry Rosés, White Zinfandels, and light bistro styled wines, to big, rich powerful wines - even luscious wines for dessert bottling. The flavors range from plummy to raspberry, although deep blackberry fruit and brambly spice tones are most common.

Reviews

Only 700 cases of this massive, concentrated wine were made in 1994, from the produce of vines with an average age of over 110 years. These ultra-low yielding ancient vines have produced a wine of impressive intensity and complexity, with gobs of ripe, briary black fruit flavors balanced by chewy tannins and a marvelously long finish. This is widely considered to be one of the most interesting and desirable of all of Ravenswoods excellent single-vineyard Zinfandel bottlings, and 1994 was a particularly successful vintage.
