2012 Ridge Zinfandel Buchignani Ranch

Community Tasting Note

wrote:

Saturday, August 25, 2018 - Strong sense of baked fruits. Mouth filling tannin. There is a tartness that sticks out a bit on the finish. A touch of oak in the background. I kept thinking about Pinots and Syrah from the Central Coast back around 2003 and 2004. This has the sense that the ripeness got away from the team a bit. They tried to combat it with water and tartaric acids. It doesn't work completely here leaving this somewhat undone and without much varietal character. Difficult to enjoy. Consistent over two nights.
