Ravenswood Old Hill Zinfandel

Ravenswood Old Hill Zinfandel is refined and reserved but, at the same time, assertive. It exudes big ripe aromas of cedar, vanilla, and dark chocolate underpinned by cherries and blackberry fruit. Powerful, rich, and somewhat gamey on the palate, the dark fruit and spice flavors persist in a long finish together with delicious vanilla and sandalwood flavors infused by the judicious use of French oak. This is an extremely alluring wine that is attractive now, but as most past vintages from this vineyard have demonstrated, will continue to get more interesting for many years.
