From California’s Dry Creek Valley, Ridge Lytton Springs Zinfandel 2023 is crafted from organically grown estate grapes, fermented with native yeasts and aged 16 months in American oak. Bottled at 14.4% ABV, it reflects a cool, slow-ripening vintage with balance and precision.

Aromatic layers of raspberry, black cherry, and plum unfold with pepper, licorice, and a touch of vanilla. Supple tannins meet bright acidity, leading to a long finish of garrigue and black tea. Best enjoyed decanted or alongside grilled meats and rustic dishes.
