October 29, 2022 - Palate and general fatigue was setting in by the time this was opened. But it impressed with its pure fruit and fine balance.

December 26, 2021 - Great color. Needs air to open. Nice spice but, like so many Ridge wines, lacking intensity, depth and acidity. Enjoyed with beef tenderloin.

February 27, 2021 - Decanted for several hours which I recommend for most Ridge wines, especially Rhone varietals. This was really.....okay. Soft aromatics-strawberry. Some cherry and strawberry notes on the palate, light mouthfeel from the Grenache. You could probably hold another couple years but no reason to. I do not see this getting better.
