Ravishing Raven

Lamole di Lamole

Maggiolo Chianti Classico Sangiovese Blend

Lovely Italian wine. Taste of red cherry with smooth finish. Nice touch of oak and medium tannins. Happy Valentine’s Day at The Raven Restaurant. — 4 months ago

Sine Qua Non

Raven Series No. 8 Grenache 2006

An absolutely stunning expression of Grenache that has completely resolved and gained an array of un-Krankl like subtlety in secondary notes too numerous to count. Black tea. Strawberry. Leather musk. Next level, 8-10 years left at least to evolve. — 2 years ago

The Vinoneers

No. 42 Orpheus & the Raven Red Blend 2018

Pinotage, cinsault and Pinot. A very good, well integrated blend. Just the right amount of smoke and old mineral. Baked cranberry and strawberry. Will be even better with a few years. — 5 years ago

Durant Vineyards

Raven Dundee Hils Chardonnay 2013

Lemon verbena and minerality dominate the high tone nose. Playful and light across the palate, but has gorgeous depth to fill all the surfaces. A lingering and nuanced finish. Can’t wait to put my efforts into these vines. Thanks Isabelle for this vintage. — 7 years ago

Raven Park

Victorian Shiraz 2016

Newly in love with Shiraz, I recently purchased a couple locally in our wine shop. This is smooth, soft to the nose and exactly the same to the pallet.
Very enjoyable!

Antonio can you enlighten me as to what constitutes a 10 wine in your expert opinion? I have an idea as to what I have in mind a 10 should be but can you let us know your rules? Thank you in advance.

@Daniel P. Drake A wine so deeply moving and complete that I can ask nothing more of it.

Domaine Barou

Un Autre Monde Saint-Joseph Syrah

First of three bottles from Chambers, 10/24/25. Bright purple. Bubble gum and blackberry nose, with wafting of evergreen (not pine nor juniper; more spruce or hemlock). Light ravishing tannin. A bit green — needs to open up? — 8 months ago

Domaine Dujac

Les Gruenchers Chambolle-Musigny 1er Cru Pinot Noir 2013

Stunning wine. Needed some air to blow off a little initial reduction, but it’s in a tremendous place, perfumed, vibrant and satiny with a brilliant bouquet, ravishing Chambolle elegance and a liquid velvet palate. It’s far more showy and complete than the last bottle two years ago. 2013 reds are really drinking great right now. Dujac always hits 🤌🏻 — a year ago

Keplinger

Lithic Shake Ridge Vineyard Grenache Blend 2016

Double decant and pour(little cloudy sediment). A ravishing dark ruby red color for this GSM blend from Amador county California. On the nose: Raspberry jam, earthy, pepper, floral, and a touch of caramel. Taste: bing cherry, wet leaves, raspberry, and mushrooms. Velvety tannins lead the charge to a medium plus finish. Drink now or give it just a few more years.. yum, get some Keplinger! — 6 years ago

Blimey it’s limey, and oh so dry. 3 hours later, my lips are still puckered. No matter how much water I drink, my mouth is still dry as the desert. Oh musty oak, oh dark raven! — 8 years ago

Raven Series No. 1 Grenache 2006

Needed a longer decant but wonderful. Dad was skeptical “Grenache - what’s that?”. You have had it before dad, it’s good. Skeptical/irritated look. Ok, very little. Converted. Back three times for “just a little/ah might as well/yeah finish it off”. Kept it at his end of the table. — 7 years ago

La Spinetta

Il Rosé di Casanova Prugnolo Gentile - Sangiovese Rosé Blend

‪ravishing rosé ✨ alert: I included this $13 ‘17 #LaSpinetta Il Rose di Casanova in an event I did in Westchester last night, and true to its name, it sent hearts racing ❤️ . Refreshing but uncommonly flavorful (cherry, peach, maybe some orange peel), with zippy tang and a long, lovely finish. Bonus: the label features the majestic rhinoceros 🦏 etched by genius artist Albrecht Dürer in the sixteenth century. If I had a summer house, this #wine would be stocked like soda. 🥤 ‬
