A solid and satisfying Prosecco. Celebrating Father’s Day with Beau and Molly. Not too sweet or dry, perfect balance. Some fruitiness, some minerality. — 22 days ago

9.2

Ideal Chianti. Dry and pairs well with food, but also fruity enough to enjoy on it’s own. Notes of cola, cherry, and some vanilla. — a year ago

8.8

I like jammy wines and this is a satisfying one. Plum, cherry, and fig. It’s easy but not simple. Well-balanced. A bit of an anise finish. Slight savory note and enough tannins to round it out. — 4 months ago

Ridge Vineyards

Three Valleys Sonoma County Zinfandel Blend

8.1

I do not drink much Sancerre, so hard to gauge where this falls. It has a light refreshing tartness. Underripe pear, maybe lemon or nectarine. Slight minerality. Very easy to drink. — 4 months ago
