Winemaker Overview: Established in 1962, Ridge Vineyards has been a pioneer in California winemaking, renowned for its commitment to single-vineyard wines and sustainable practices. The Geyserville vineyard, with vines dating back over 130 years, showcases the unique terroir of the Alexander Valley.

TASTING NOTES: Ruby-garnet in color with aromas of dark plum, black cherry, baking spices, cola, wet gravel, toasted oak, violets, and lavender. A full-bodied entry with bold dark fruit leads to a layered and complex mid-palate with fine-grained tannins. Natural acidity balances the wine, creating a long, juicy finish.

FOOD PAIRINGS: Enjoy with poultry dishes such as duck or oven-roasted goose, pulled-pork, or gumbo.
