This wine is an example that price has nothing to do with quality. Lots of fruity sweetness balanced with acidity, and with vanilla and tobacco. — 3 years ago
Awesome. Can really taste the dark berries — 6 years ago
Extremely floral on the nose, intense red & blue fruit on the palate leading with cranberry right after opening, then blueberry, finishing with some earthiness and a slightly gritty texture leaving a finish on your palate reminding you the wine was there. Bottle really evolves after some decanting! — 7 years ago

This is my favorite Zinfindel blend from Ridge. I like it/them more with 8-10 years of bottle age. But this 2023 drank very well young. One of the best current releases I’ve had in a while. Fresh as it was very recently bottled! 93+ in time.
Sirloin Steak was tip top.

The ticket to this event has a pretty big price tag. But when you consider what a Napa etc. tasting or two and lunch would cost you, you are pretty much there and there is so much more than that. It ends up having great value. It’s wine, spirits and food candy land. — 7 months ago
Strong cherry aromas and flavors, very mild acid from the tart cherry and some mild but present tannins. Very food friendly. A blend of 4 grapes (Öküzgözü, Bogazkere, Alicante, Carignan) made in Turkey. — 3 years ago
On the nose a stable, dark fruit, wet leaves, licorice. A big wine in other words, this Super Tuscan blend of 40% Cabernet Sauvignon, 30% Merlot, 15% Alicante, 10% Sangiovese and 5% Cabernet Franc. On the palate there is softness, round, dark fruit, some tobacco. A lively wine with a bite. Great surprise. — 5 years ago
Dedalus Thirst club Feb 2020 made duck recipe to go with it. Lovely softness with nice fruit. — 6 years ago
Absolutely gorgeous from nose to finish. Light body and low alcohol but bursting with berry and floral flavor. It smells like compote cooking and drinks like early summer in a bottle. Wet and funky, this is a bottle to experience. — 7 years ago
