2015 RIDGE “LYTTON SPRINGS” ZINFANDEL
$39.99 $39.99
As much as I love discovering exciting, newly emerging wine brands, there’s something special about a brand with a decades old legacy. With roots dating back to the late 1880’s, Ridge is certainly one of them. The original Monte Bello Vineyard was planted around 1885, and at the time, wine was produced under the Monte Bello label. It wasn’t until 1962 that the first Ridge Monte Bello Cabernet was produced, and since then it’s become one of California’s longest standing premium vineyards. The winery produced their first Zinfandel in 1964 and they’ve reliably produced some of the most memorable Zinfandels ever since…

From The Connoisseurs Guide, “Petite Sirah's expressive personality contributes both spicy and strong structural elements to the dominant Zinfandel portion here, and it all adds up to a young, highly promising bottling with well-concentrated, fully fruited aromas and flavors. Indeed, there is so much to like that, despite its tannic load, this boldly stated wine will drink very nicely now with savory beef or lamb roasts, yet its true brilliance lies some years in the future, and we will happily lay some away for five to ten years in the full expectation that both range and sophistication will grow and grow.” 95 Points
From Vinous, "The 2015 Lytton Springs is very, very closed. Readers should not think about opening a bottle anytime soon. Intensely aromatic, but also tightly wound, the 2015 only hints at its true potential. Deceptively medium in body, the 2015 packs a real punch.” 94+
