2011 Ravenswood "Old Hill" Sonoma Valley Zinfandel

Originally planted in 1862 by William Hill, this vineyard sustains some of Sonoma‰۪s oldest vines. Nearly 150 years later, those mixed blacks (76 percent Zinfandel) produced a bright, tangy wine with wild tannins. Its texture is mellowed by a resinous character, like eucalyptus oil. Decant it for braised boar.
