Noteringar:
2007-11-28 11:19 IWC: By Josh Raynolds Stephen Tanzer's International Wine Cellar (Issue #135, November/December 2007) (Ridge Vineyards Zinfandel Lytton Springs Dry Creek Valley) ($35; 77% zinfandel, 17% petite sirah and 6% carignane) Deep red. Sweet dark berry and kirsch scents are complicated by musky herbs, dried flowers and minerals, with a suave undercurrent of oak spice contributing sweetness. Powerful cassis and bitter cherry flavors are firmed by youthful tannins, which add grip to the finish. Possesses the focus, balance and concentration to repay a decade or more in the cellar. 92 points
2007-11-28 11:19 WS: A zesty spice bomb of a Zinfandel, with boysenberry, ripe cherry, licorice and roasted herb notes and long, deep flavors that build toward firm, cedary tannins on the finish. Best from 2008 through 2012. 18,000 cases made.
