Ridge York Creek Zinfandel 2006

Varietal: Zinfandel

Vineyard: Ridge Vineyards

Region: Napa Valley, California

Aged in air-dried american oak, this opulent, complex zinfandel is enjoyable now, and will continue to develop over the next five to seven years.

"As saturated with fruit as this may be when first poured, it gains with air as the potent structural elements of oak and alcohol begin to meld into the ripe, black flavors of the wine. It's powerful, yet gracefully restrained by pure, mineral tannins. A sleek vintage from Fritz Maytag's York Creek Vineyard." 90 Points
