Deep dark center, red/purple rim, no signs of age. Very fruity nose, ripe black plums and blueberries, a touch of smoke, quite bright. Smooth, darker fruits - plums and black cherries, good tannins and acidity still but balances the fruit well, alcohol in check, well integrated oak, great finish. Excellent GSM blend, at 8 years it feel a little young still but drinking very well now.

I liked it but less than my prior bottles. Showing some age in terms of less fruit flavors but without more interesting secondary notes to compensate. I’d drink now

Good drinking and well balanced GSM from Ridge. Medium bodied with nose of earth and a bit of leather.
