Pnp, fruity nose, jammy, smooth, a bit of RS, but in check, nice long finish. This bottle was fully integrated, but shows no signs of fading, cellared since 2016, last tasted 7/2021 with consistent notes.

Mature, complex, develops after opened. It may have some years ahead, but might be at its peak.

Yum. Again. Must buy more Ridge. Fairly fruit heavy, but just this side of jammy. Call it “rich”. Very much in its prime.
