Ravenswood, Monte Rosso Zinfandel--Vintage 1997
Sonoma Valley
In original cartons
"An outstanding effort from Ravenswood is the 1997 Zinfandel Monte Rosso (15.5 alcohol). This effort exhibits an impressively saturated ruby/purple color, and sweet mineral and blackberry flavors intermixed with dried herbs, kirsch liqueur, and stone-like scents. The vintage's tell-tale zingy acidity is present, but is more than compensated for by the concentrated, rich fruit. I suspect this will be a long-lived Zinfandel, lasting for a decade or more." Robert Parker, The Wine Advocate, Issue 123
