(Ridge Barbera Rancho Pequeño) Bricking medium red violet color with pale meniscus; appealing, mature, bacon fat, Jimmy Dean sausage nose; tasty, mature, tart red fruit, strawberry, smoked sausage, red currant, tomato puree palate; medium-plus finish 90+ points (surprisingly good for a 21 yr old California Barbera)

Fall 2011 Ridge Wine Blogger Tasting - Lytton Springs Estate Rhones (Ridge Lytton Estate - Healdsburg, CA): Light-medium ruby color some bricking with cherry, roasted meat, and earthy aromas. On the palate light bodied, balanced, and complex with cherry, cocoa, and vanilla flavors. Amazing fruit for 20+ year old Barbera. Medium finish
