  June 5, 2019 - A 19 year old Zinfandel blend...yea, I was holding my breath for this one. Was it about to blow my mind or had I just blown my money on the bottle? If ever there were doubts that Ridge was one of THE greats, this bottle silenced them. Zinging blackberry, ripe plum. I never would have guessed it’s aged. All hail the masters on zin!

  February 24, 2011 - Discovered in cellar and popped open. This was an oak bomb that needed several hours and multiple aerations to make it drinkable. Hopefully the balance of the bottle will be better tonight....

  September 14, 2010 - This was a good bottle of Ridge. I am noticing though that quality of the fruit is beginning to vary from the 2000 vintage.
