Ravenswood Single Vineyard Big River Zinfandel, Alexander Valley, Vintage 2009

The bottle story reports: Only 1300 cases made; Bottled June 2011; Soil Manzanita

This is a gem of a zin! Black pepper, plum and black berry are on the nose and it’s a wonderfully deep garnet color with impressive legs in the glass. It’s so silky and has a lip-smacking, jammy taste with more pepper and a deliciously dry finish.  Wow!  At $20/bottle, this one is a steal for a zin. Excellent.
