Parker Review:
The 1987 Pickberry will ultimately turn out to be one of the best and longestlived red table wines Ravenswood has produced. It is more forward, perfumed, and elegant than the more muscular and brawny 1986. However, do not think for a moment that it is anywhere close to maturity. The wine needs at least 45 years in the bottle. It displays impeccably pure, rich, herbtinged red and black fruit flavors, a whiff of spicy oak, and splendid depth and balance. Readers who taste it along side of the 1986 will probably think it to be forward. It should be at its best between Now to 2008.
