The Ridge Lytton Springs Zin 2012 was excellent bang for buck at $32. I also gather it is tough to find. Silky and smooth with good berries and a hint of vanilla. The tannins were youngish and I'd expect the body to develop over the next couple years. nice oaky finish. Very pleased. — 11 years ago

Awesomr napa red blend. Eight years in and still youthful characteristics. Red fruit aromatics, noticeable tannin that doesn't overpower. Couple more years will do it good but tasting fantastic tonight! — 11 years ago

Popped this a couple hours before dinner. Showed a ton of red fruited character then. With air, this has picked up a ton of weight & plummy/currant/cedar notes. Plenty of tannic structure still. Classic Bordeaux- no spoof-great vintage. — 11 years ago

In a beautiful place. Youthful vibrant nose that evolves with every pour. Palate is a bit thin. The thought is this vintage peaked a couple years back. Last glass was cedar, lavender, tobacco and graphite — 12 years ago

Expressive ripe blackberry and boysenberry on the nose. This wine has nice structure and is approachable now but should really come around in a couple years. — 11 years ago

This wine consistently makes my top 10 favorite California Cabernet blend. The 2012 vintage is no exception. Had the pleasure of having a couple glasses with a filet. New World fruit with Old World finesse, my palate enjoyed every sip. I think it could improve with a few more years of bottle aging. If you can find for under $90, this is a wonderful special occasion wine. Cheers!! — 11 years ago

Seems like the fruit bonked. It would be nice to have tried it a couple years ago, but the acidity tells me it might have balanced again in a few years, so who knows :) — 12 years ago
