Tasting note
A modern classic that helped put Zinfandel on the map. Fun fact: Eccentric Ravenswood hosts an annual party celebrating fans who've been tattooed with the winery's logo. Soft and juicy and bursting with ripe, dark berry fruit, this is made for barbecued meats.
This dry, full-bodied and woody red displays a complex and intense nose. On the palate, its refreshing acidity, fleshy tannins, and full-bodied texture precede a long finish.
Aromas of ripe blackberries, raspberries and vanilla. Full-bodied with a hint of spice on the finish.
Mouth-watering flavors of cherry and boysenberry. Notes of warm spice and layers of fruit are perfectly balanced with good acidity and soft, supple tannins.
The Vintners Blend has a somewhat smoky and savoury character at the core of chocolate, peppery spices and blackberry aromas. In the mouth, the entry is smooth and then it picks up some texture mid-palate. The finish is long and trails berry and mocha flavours. Pair with hearty mole chili.
