Ravenswood 2012 Dickerson Single Vineyard Zinfandel (Napa Valley)

Country: US / California
Variety: Zinfandel
Winery: Ravenswood / Dickerson Single Vineyard

There’s a feral element to this vineyard-designate, the producer’s only one from Napa Valley, from a vineyard planted originally in 1930. Extracted and thick, it offers plum, blackberry and raspberry around big, broad shoulders of mocha and oak. And as always, there’s a hint of mint.
