When you’re in the mood for a mouthful of jammy fruit and spice, reach for the Ravenswood Sonoma Old Vine Zinfandel. Deep in color, this powerful red has aromas of black cherry and blackberry fruits plus a touch of herbs, baking spices, vanilla and a creamy texture. It layers on the rich and full blackberry and black cherry flavors and adds an inherently spicy demeanor to the wine. The Ravenswood Old Vine Sonoma Zin will be a fine match for grilled meats, from burgers to steaks to salmon and beyond.
