TASTING NOTES
Deep nose of blackberry, anise and espresso. Ample structure and mouthfeel with raspberry bramble, dark chocolate and baking spice. -Winemaker's Notes
94pts - Decanter
“It is a departure for Ridge, as it's not a single vineyard wine but instead a blend of 10 different sites from throughout Sonoma County. Bright and delightful with savoury herbs, tart early-season blackberries, and muddled mint leaves, all vie for attention in this wine's generous aromatic show. A melange of wild mountain berries, mouthfuls of dried savoury garrigue and lavender, dashes of white pepper and an incredible lift to the finish which lingers for an eternity. Concentrated and refined.”

“The bright and spicy nose of this Zinfandel blend gives aromas of dried cranberry, raspberry compote and spiced fig. The palate is polished and balanced, with plenty of blackberry, plum, fresh herb and black licorice flavors mingling and lingering through the finish."
