Medium red color, limited transparency. Aromas of red berries, chocolate, vanilla, and a little sweet cinnamon. Palate is initially chocolate with blackberry and raspberry carrying into a medium finish. The chocolate notes distract, to my tastes. Structurally fine, but the flavors aren't as sharp as I'd like them to be. Drink.

Fairly rich, bramble and red fruit. Good, but with less complexity and interest than other Ridge wines.

Light and a bit fruity. Lacked depth and definition. Probably past due.

No great notes as it was one of many. I do recall lots of pepper and some creaminess. An enjoyable bottle of wine.
