March 6, 2017 - A beautiful perfectly preserved old Zinfandel, and testament to the endurance of Ridge. One of the better aged Zins I've ever had, leaves very little to be desired.

July 2, 2013 - Picked this up on WineBid without knowing what to expect. Wasn't sure if it would even be drinkable at this age. It proved truly lovely: flavors fully resolved into secondary and tertiary notes. Lots of leather and forest floor, but with a full, round body. A real treat at the end of a dinner party.
