This bottle was in wonderful condition, with a healthy, firm cork. Appropriate color for its age, ruby red with a lightening, slight amber rim. Not much on the nose and the palate was quite austere. Tannins, acid and very little fruit. Bummer.

Perfect bottle. Better today than yesterday or tomorrow. Deep palate - redwood fermentation tanks have almost smoky quality and the fruit has mellowed to velvet.

Old Vines Offline III (Mi Casa): Oldest Ravenswood of the evening. Solid showing with some oxidative notes on the nose but balanced structure beneath. Fruit is turning a bit earthy and tannins are resolved. Nice to see how well these Old Ravenswood Zins holdup.

Put a bottle in the coq au vin and served a bottle with it. Chewy with berry fruits, but the fruit starting to fade. Time to drink up, as this has passed its peak. Still a great bottle of wine which proves that Zins can last.
