Default [TN] 2000 Ravenswood Teldeschi Zin

Tonight, with a dinner of Memphis-style BBQ ribs, German potato salad
and cole slaw, I opened what I hoped would be a decent BBQ wine:

2000 Ravenswood Teldeschi Zinfandel (14.8% ABV)
nose: black pepper, tar, berry fruit
palate: oak, berry and plum fruit, acids, medium-full body, cedar

This was truly my last bottle of pre-Constellation Ravenswood Zin.
Pretty correct and well balanced, it was a bit too oaky for my tastes
and a bit too hot for Jean's. Not a great match with the BBQ, either --
a rosé might have done better, but the cold, rainy weather called for
something more robust.
