Why did I only buy 1 bottle of this vintage? Normally my favorite Ridge Zins are Lytton Springs and Geyserville, but I can't imagine either of those being better than this bottle. I brought this to a wine and pizza dinner for my wine group and this was the favorite of the night.
14.4% abv. Dark ruby, plus aromatics. Black raspberry, cherry and sage. Excellent depth and length with a savory element. Great focus and poise. Really nice Zin.

14.4% abv. Dark ruby, good aromatics. On the palate, beautiful black cherry, white pepper, a bit of mint and bramble. Very well balanced, great depth and length. An excellent Jimmy!
