Hello
I did a reality check with the not un-good Search engine of the Swedish

Ridge
No.
Ravenswood
Yes - Vintner's Blend Zinfandel SEK 99 (USD 15.50)
Renwood
No.
Fife
No.
Cline
Yes - Cline Zinfandel. SEK 89 (USD 14)
So, a grand total of two. These are superior to the Behringer object? You
say so, apparently Bi!! also considers Ravenswood superior, so it will have
to be that one ...
Nils,
The Ravenswood Vintner's Blend (aka Château Cashflow) was once a
very correct, inexpensive Zin. Since their purchase by Constellation,
the Wal-Mart of the wine world, production has escalated and quality has
fallen. Do you know if the Cline is the "California" or "Ancient Vines"
bottling? The latter is a usually reliable cheapie Zin; the former is
less interesting. Regardless, I'd probably choose the Cline as the best
of a bad lot.
