November 14, 2020 - I just find these wines age so well -- such a testiment to Ridge's wine making. I have a couple more left of these old ridge zin's and just enjoy every mouth full.

May 26, 2014 - Another lovely bottle of aged Ridge Zin. This was all dark chocolate, red plums and menthol. Just starting to thin out a bit but still soft and plenty round enough. Got better with air over the course of two hours. Probably won't hold in this place for long so drink up.

January 1, 2014 - The nicest old bottle of Ridge I have had over the past few years. It is fully mature at this point with hints of bitter sweet chocolate and cinnamon on the nose and palate. Just enough underlying fruit to keep it balanced. Long finish. Very Nice.
