I have a very emotional attachment to this wine and vineyard. (I'm going beyond tasting notes here). I was introduced to this wine at a UCLA extension course on premiere growths and held at Wally's in west LA in about 1976. Among the French wines (Haut Brion, etc), the Jimso popped up and I was hooked. Ridge had a new club, ATP, and I latched on. Nearly 50 years later, I still have a special place in my heart for what Jimsomare has taught me about the richness of the wine experience.

Still young, but very drinkable after some decant time. Tannins there, but not overpowering and they soften while in the glass.
