Elegant aged zinfandel. Took about an hour of air to show its colors. Not very good upon initial opening.

Library case bottle 6. Opened up right away and showed well. Lots of ripe fruit but not jammy. Still has structure but the tannins are pretty soft. Very good.

Ravenswood Big River Alexander Valley zin. Soda fountain flavors: cherry vanilla and chocolate cola. A little hot at the end, and tannic, but attractive nevertheless.
