And this time, it’s serious. After years off the radar, one of California’s most iconic Zinfandel brands has been revived, with the blessing of founder Joel Peterson and the backing of Gallo, a company that knows exactly how to bring legacy brands back to life. And they didn’t miss. The Ravenswood Dry Creek Valley Zinfandel delivers everything you want from classic Sonoma Zin. Sourced from Dry Creek Valley fruit and made by a winemaker deeply experienced with old vine Zinfandel, the wine is built to showcase balance, energy, and true varietal character. In the glass, it hits all the marks. Plum, black cherry, and spice, layered with a subtle cinnamon note from neutral oak, and a bright, lively structure that keeps the wine fresh and incredibly drinkable. This is not overripe, heavy Zinfandel. It’s rich, but balanced. Powerful, but energetic. And then there’s the score. 94 points from Wine Spectator, making it the highest scoring Zinfandel under $30 in the last three years. That’s not a small statement. Especially when you consider the competition. And the price? $21.98. For a wine with this level of pedigree, this kind of score, and this level of drinkability, that’s a no-brainer. If you’ve been waiting to see Ravenswood come back the right way, this is it.
