A Quarterly Red Cellar Trio Wine Club Selection
Once & Future is the return of one of California's great winemaking mavericks—Joel Peterson. Joel started Ravenswood in 1976 with the focus of making Zinfandel from old vine parcels throughout Sonoma and Contra Costa Counties, and was the first winemaker to vineyard designate Zinfandel in California. Once & Future is a continuation of Joel's early work at Ravenswood as he's returned to many of the original vineyards he used: Oakley, Sangiacomo, and Teldeschi, while also incorporating the famed Bedrock vineyard owned with his son Morgan Twain-Peterson, and Palisades vineyard in Calistoga.

A Quarterly Red Cellar Trio Wine Club Selection
Deep, dark red with scarlet flashes. The nose shows crushed red fruits, scents of wild strawberry and pomegranate. The palate is grapey and intense, with flavors of ripe, black cherry, black plum and blueberry fruit, laced with notes of tobacco and cedar, with chewy, firm tannins. Bold but with superb balance, and a long, fruited finish.
2020 Ronchi Barbaresco, Piemonte, Italy (750ml)
About the Icons
A Red Cellar Trio Wine Club Selection
Established in the 1900s, the Rocca family’s wines are still somewhat of an insider’s secret, representing some of the better values in Barbaresco. Winemaker Giancarlo Rocca is the fourth generation of the Rocca clan to live in the house built by the family, surrounded by ‘Ronchi’ cru vines, which runs along the eastern edge of the appellation, near the historic town of Neive.
