LiQuery - Ravenswood Old Vine Zinfandel 2018

Description
From an iconic Zin producer, this wine includes 17% Petite Sirah and 1% Alicante Bouschet and spent 18 months in French oak. A perennial favourite with Vintages customers, it always brings plenty of mixed berry, earthy and sweet spice notes. The team at Ravenswood suggests pairing it with turkey dinner, baked salmon or herb-crusted chicken.

Tasting Notes
Initially quite shy on the nose, blueberry and blackberry aromas start to emerge, encased in a velvety, smoky veneer. Flowing with cinnamon-dusted plums, violets, toast and sweet, vanilla-laced fruit, this is a powerful wine, large and imposing. Mouthfilling and viscous, but still managing to stay dry and long, the finish is speckled with dried blackberries, bitter nut skin and a bloody tang. From pre-Prohibition, dry-farmed, low-yielding vines. Drinking window: 2022-2026. Score - 90. (Natalie Earl, decanter.com, Dec. 17, 2021)
