Ravenswood 2009 Lodi Old Vine Zinfandel
Lodi, California

Many of California's oldest vineyards are planted with Zinfandel — some more than 100 years old. They tend to produce wines with more complex flavors than their younger counterparts. This 2009 Old Vine Zinfandel boasts aromas and flavors of dried currants, plum, blackberry and spice. Its rich flavors and sturdy tannins make this Ravenswood wine an excellent accompaniment to grilled steaks, tri-tip and ribs.

Rating: 14/20
Price: $15
