'01 ravenswood amador county

[newsguy]

had a glass of this while out for dinner saturday night. no detailed notes, but gotta tell ya i liked this wine a lot. deep, dark and slightly spicy with a definite tea overtone. (which reminded me of the renwood grandpere i had last month, also from amador county. have i noticed a trait of amador zins: tea?) and this ravenswood had a great finish. my regular shop doesn't carry and i didn't see this on the wine searcher, but judging by what i paid for the glass, i'm guessing the bottle would sell in the $11-13 range. if so, it's a very good zin at that price.
