Structure: full-bodied, medium tannin, medium acidity, dry
A classic Dry Creek Valley Zinfandel from Ridge, showing the appellation's signature combination of blackberry and brambly fruit alongside spice and a savory earthiness. Ridge's characteristically restrained winemaking keeps the wine balanced despite Zinfandel's naturally generous fruit, avoiding the jammy excess that can plague the variety. It's a food-friendly, honest expression of the grape with good structure and a warm, spiced finish.
