Marie,
I appreciate your mouth watering descriptions of these wonderful wines.
I have not tried Ravenswood chardonnay but I like Ravenswood zinfandel.
I live in Arizona and in the summer I lose my taste for red wine, sometimes for wine completely.
I tend to not drink as much during the summer months, except for water and iced tea.
I love the Pinot Noirs. I recently had a La Crema pinot noir that was deliciously mysterious.
My current repertoire of white wines are viognier and pinot grigio.
Happy drinking
