2023 Ridge Vineyards Geyserville

Aromas of black cherries and chapparal. On the palate, penetrating raspberry fruit, black olive, firm acidity, supple tannins, and a long finish.

70% Zinfandel, 18% Carignane, 9% Petite Sirah, 3% Alicante Bouschet

Geyserville is Ridge’s longest-running bottling because the site has produced flawless Zinfandel year after year. Grown on vines over 130 years old—the oldest that the winery farms.  The grapes are intermixed in the vineyard and then co-fermented, a process that imbues the wine with a balance that defies purely scientific explanation.
