August 16, 2023 - Better than I remembered. Decanted but not much sediment in this bottle. Fully mature and Perfect with grilled burgers!
August 8, 2022 - Dark fruit and spice; a little remaining tannin; raisons; nice but a little short. Can probably hang in there a few more years but no reason to wait.
June 7, 2021 - Decanted through a strainer to remove crumbled cork. Drank over 2 hours. Subtle, not bold. Smooth, mellow fruit, which morphed among cherry, strawberry and cranberry. Very nice spice.
November 20, 2007 - Tasty with the expected full mouth of typical zinfandel flavors. Nice smooth finish.
April 3, 2007 - good
January 5, 2007 - Lots of cork/oak funk. After a couple of hours of air, the Ridge Paso Robles character came through: very jammy fruit, big body. Probably wasn't a good idea to keep it this long, but with enough air it's still in fine shape.
December 9, 2006 - RASPBERRIES AND BLACK CHERRIES IN THE NOSE AND FLAVOR WITH A TOUCH OF SPICE. MEDIUM LENGTH FINISH.
August 10, 2001 - Unremarkable, no perceptible flavor or nose
