Just an amazing drinking experience. This is a 28 year old wine, tasting so good with mature tertiary flavors, reminiscent of a quality old world wine. Sad that it’s my last bottle, but really enjoyed them.

OMG. Wine came directly from Ravenswood and cellared properly all these years. Reminded me of a well aged Ridge Monte Bello. Just a fabulous drinking experience!

I liked the wine much, much more then the score suggests. Starting off with a mellow, mildly sweet nose...difficult to discern this is a new world wine. Sweet tobacco. Soft, well integrated fruit somewhere between black and red. Not very complex. Maybe "too" well integrated (old) for this particular wine. Delicious to enjoy but lacked greatness. Maybe it would have better a couple of years ago? Drink now.

Some clear notes of oak, medium-bodied, bit of sweetness. Okay.
