What we love
Ridge has produced a single-vineyard bottling of Paso Robles Zinfandel from Dusi Ranch each year since 1967. This unique Prohibition-era vineyard creates a Zinfandel with aromas of ripe plum and cherry fruits, toasty oak, and complex gravel earth. Thirteen months in oak has added exotic spice and integrated tannins with its appealing fruit. Refreshing acidity means this Zinfandel is far from being too heavy or jammy.
About this Wine
Known for their iconic single-vineyard bottlings of Cabernet, Zinfandel, and Chardonnay, Ridge has been dominating the California viticultural game since 1962. Fruit for the winery’s classic Paso Robles Zinfandel comes from one of California’s premier vineyards. Enjoy!
