December 19, 2016 - Blueberries, currants, black raspberries and some floral in the nose. Cherries, raspberries, and deep berry fruit in the flavor with a touch of spice. Nice acidity, well balanced, and a long finish.

Carlisle, Turley, Ridge, Linne Calodo, Martinelli, and Storybook Reserve are probably my favorite Zins, and I find them to be perfect food wines at around 7-12 years old, not that I don't open some earlier than that... but for that matter, I've had some amazing 20+ year old Ridge zins!!
