Monte Rosso Sonoma Valley Zinfandel

Ruby in color with a wide brick rim.

A little mildew and earth notes on the nose.

Medium bodied with medium acidity.

Dry on the palate with nice complexity.

Showing red currants, cooked plums, earth, light oak, mildew, spices, wet leaves, herbs, black pepper, tobacco leaf and dark chocolates.

Short finish with soft tannins and tangy cranberries.

This 27 year old Single Vineyard Zinfandel is not drinking at its best any longer. Interesting to try, but lost most of its fruits by now.

15% alcohol by volume.

87 Points.

Who said 15% alcohol wines can’t be incredible?

Still going strong but it's on it's way out

Balanced and aged to perfection. From magnum.

Amazingly delicious and impeccably fresh and balanced Ready now.

Oh whoa oh whoa oh oh #HanginTough Plenty of acid left. Wish I caught it a couple of years earlier

Holding together much better than many cabs! Showing nicely dried fruit, spice and balanced acidity. Impressive effort

Still kicking with layers of eucalyptus and dried berries.

Wow!

A classic. Still has loads of fruit, but transitioning from zin berry to claret. Leather, spice, fine dusty tannins. Old Ravenswood from top vineyards rarely disappoints and this is no exception.
