Ridge Vineyards
Lytton Springs Dry Creek Valley Zinfandel Blend 2022
@Dave - All the single vineyard Zins Ridge makes are great, year after year, decade after decade. They always respect the grape and the vineyard and the grower. Also keep an eye out for their Carignanes and the blends from the centennial vines in Contra Costa County.
Thanks @Tom Casagrande I will keep my eyes open and make you proud
@Tom Casagrande Indeed.

One of the best pinots I have had (2016). Very nice balance of fruit and dryness. Mouth feel was incredible for a Pinot. Trying to figure out how to get more. — 7 years ago

One of the best Pinot’s I’ve had. The aromatics jumped out of the glass. Tea and barnyard like the best burgundies. — 4 years ago

Day 1 of this year's Smallmouth Smackdown has begun. After 7 hours on the boat, and a dozen bass, it's time to crack into some libations (had a few PBR's on the boat).
This is a lush Zin. Concentrated fruit, but savory and chewy. Blackberry, blood orange, cigar box, and enough structure to age much longer. This is my 3rd Ridge Zin, and I'd have to say I still favor the Pagani Ranch.
