Monte Rosso is a registered historic vineyard tended for decades by the Martini family. Perched on a southwest-facing slope of Moon Mountain, Monte Rosso’s iron-rich, volcanic soils and 1,300-ft elevation combine for an unforgettable experience in the glass.
The Teldeschi Vineyard is one of the first vineyards that founder Joel Peterson sourced from, situated in Sonoma County and planted to dry-farmed old vine Zinfandel. Known for its bold fruit flavors.

MacMurray Ranch, situated in the heart of the Russian River Valley, is planted primarily to Pinot Noir due to its relatively cool climate. Founder Joel Peterson worked extensively with Russian River Valley fruit, making this wine something of an homage to our early origins.
The inner circle; the obsessive, inspired, and tight-knit team carrying Ravenswood into its next era.
Head Winemaker Michael Eddy-Cort, Associate Winemaker Camila Tahim, Assistant Winemaker Mara Dickson, Assistant Winemaker Mario Salinas, and Senior Winemaker Sarah Lampi.
“My favorite part of this project is having a small, focused collection of single-vineyard wines—including two from the same sites that Joel used originally—crafted to show the refinement and distinction of Zinfandel."
The Dry Creek Valley is the most renowned region for Zinfandel in Sonoma County, and perhaps all of California. Just two miles wide and 16 miles long, it’s a small but special place, with a dynamic range of elevations, micro-climates, and soil types.
As we embarked on reviving Ravenswood, we were fortunate to spend considerable time with the brand’s founder, Joel Peterson. To hear his stories firsthand, get a taste of his winemaking philosophy, and of course, talk shop about old vines, was nothing short of magical.
Zinfandel is a bold, robust variety. While it’s typecast as a full-bodied powerhouse, it’s often overlooked as a wine that captures sense of place.
We’re excited to share four distinctly different expressions of California’s definitive varietal wine.
