Review: Ravenswood Zinfandel

Me and the wife cashed-in a $100 Lettuce-Entertain-You gift card at Maggiano's the other night in exhausting Schaumburg, IL. I knew we weren't up for a bottle, so settled on two glasses of wine. Lo and behold, I saw a wine that I have enjoyed at home in the past:

Ravenswood Zinfandel

It's a good one! A little steep, perhaps, at $8+ per glass, but compared to the other by the glass wines on the menu, a bargain. It was bold (like a Cabernet), but not too dry. It was perfect for the I-talian food we ordered.

You can certainly pick-up an affordable bottle of Ravenswood Zinfandel at your local liquor store for $15 or less (always look for sales).
