  June 30, 2018 - At tasting. Brief note. Nose and palate show big, sweet fruit paste upfront, toffee and date cake, and milk chocolate. Slightly tannic backbone to this to give structure to a wine that really needs it. Long, sweet finish is simple yet satisfying. This is shockingly well balanced. I'm starting to see a trend I like across the board with aged Ridge.

  December 7, 2010 - Purchased from the Lytton winery back in a visit in '04 or '05. Big fruit, jam flavors. Not the thinking man's wine, just a big glass of hearty zin. Enjoyed and consumed quickly on a Friday night at home.

  June 5, 2010 - 2002 Ridge Jimsomare “Late Picked” Zinfandel
  Way too ripe and over the top for me and not my cup of tea. Yet this will be attractive to those who like rich ripe wines. 15.6% ABV
