14.5% alcohol. Still pretty good. Spice and leather nose. Blackberry, plum (aged) flavours with moderate peppery tannins and a medium finish. Enjoyable with a meaty spaghetti.

Ravenswood's entry level Zinfandel and therefore designed to be drunk before year 12. However this is in pretty good condition and still an enjoyable drink.

I was worried I might have left it too late for this wine, but there was still plenty of berry fruit and balanced acidity. Soft tannins. Fresh bilberry on the nose; rather short on the finish.

Quite alcoholic on the nose. Initially, red berries, mint. Tannins quite pronounced, but not overly so. Finish is long, fruity and dry. Later on it has mellower tannins, but a peppery finish.
