770 Miles on Independence Day.


In drinking of Californian wines I’ve got greatness of old vine in memorable by bear on label Haraszthy Old Vine Zinfandel and Ravenswood, which using was with a story.

Every year I do a foolish thing calls participation in Green Card Lottery where chances for forever and ever bachelor aren’t so high. Once, what was few years ago, in another May, a month when appears results, I decided for myself as in Theseus legend, who promised to his father if he’ll survive – he’ll arrive on white sails, in case of death – his sailors will wear black ones. I decided that if I willn’t get a green card – I’ll buy a bottle of white wine. No, I like white wines, but they are not in my preferences to reds, which I’ll attain in case of victory.
I went in special wine shop for reconnaissance to look on potential bottles.  In studying of staff attention gripped to red Ravenswood Old Vine Zinfandel. Got information brought me that I couldn’t leave this bottle. I must use moment for buy now. I did it.
Result of lottery was that I should try in next time. Wrapped in sadness I drank Ravenswood. It was damn great bottle of wine in every stage. Special in my experience of these beverages. Favorable stinky French cheese, what I usually use in time of wine, was a fine addition to smooth composition of flavors. My damnation was prolonged, but I was drinking true ambrosia.

It just happens that meetings with Californian wines always peculiar. 770 Miles Zinfandel was a drink to Independence Day. Few cooked beefsteaks on grill was my American dish for celebration. The bottle was open.
I have the only flaw to perfect – I didn’t keep longer in fridge to where I put because temperature of basement wasn’t for wines on that moment. 770 Miles is grandiose in everything: calm in sniff, tender in mouth rinsing and blissing in using inside and aftertaste, which caresses. A wine for celebration, good evening and when you sad. I must more often drink Californian wines where ideal condition for grape. Whole year sunny.
