    Winemaker Notes

    Only 700 cases of this massive, concentrated wine were made in 1994, from the produce of vines with an average age of over 110 years. These ultra-low yielding ancient vines have produced a wine of impressive intensity and complexity, with gobs of ripe, briary black fruit flavors balanced by chewy tannins and a marvelously long finish. This is widely considered to be one of the most interesting and desirable of all of Ravenswoods excellent single-vineyard Zinfandel bottlings, and 1994 was a particularly successful vintage.

    Fueled initially by the inspiration and winemaking skills of Joel Peterson, aided and abetted by his business partner W. Reed Foster, Ravenswood winery has been dedicated to top quality, hand-crafted wine since the first crush in 1976. Every Ravenswood wine carries a unique vintage and vineyard identity in addition to the intense powerful – gothic – character with which the winery has come to be associated.

    A key to Ravenswood’s success is their long-standing relationships with over 60 independent grape growers. Vineyards are chosen for their location, age, yield and special flavor characteristics. At Ravenswood, they are devoted to working with growers who share their philosophy about high quality.

    Ravenswood Vineyard Designate wines are made employing what Joel Peterson refers to as “stubborn and impractical” Old World enological practices. Wines are fermented in small wooden tanks using wild, natural yeasts and punched down by hand three to five times per day. The wines are characterized by intense, spicy aromas supported by rich, berry flavors and long, clean finishes.
