Three Valleys Sonoma County Zinfandel Blend 2022

Always delicious. Ridge never disappoints. Currants, oak, choco-vanilla and cream. It's a tiny tad thin but absolutely slaps because it feels almost crushable. Almost — 7 days ago

Lytton Springs Dry Creek Valley Zinfandel Blend 2018

2018. Probably my favorite Ridge Zinfandel that I’ve had. Could be that I found it in Delta Junction and wasn’t expecting it to be this delicious, or that it paired great with our homemade chicken parmigiana. — 19 days ago

Seghesio Family Vineyards

Sonoma County Zinfandel 2023

Deep, dark red color. Jammy red fruit nose.
On the palate, it is not a jammy Zin. A very well balanced wine of dark red fruits, tannins, acidity, with a very long and complex finish. Great Zin.

No detailed notes. Just a good drink now budget Cabernet from California which drinks to its price point. Blackberry and dark chocolate. A Coppola movie has more complexity 😎 — 21 days ago
