Even better is the 2008 Ridge Lytton Springs. A blend of 74 Zinfandel, 21 Petite Sirah, and 5 Carignane, the wine is dense and structured, with load of minerality that’s balanced by earthy dark fruits, smoke, and subtle pepper on the nose. Very pure and focused on the nose, the palate follows suit with medium+ body, good acidity, beautiful fruit, and an overall, edgy and structured personality. The fruit keeps this enjoyable now, but I think this will age very well. I’d give bottles 2-4 years in the cellar, and then drink over the following decade or more.

Striking, intense black cherry and blackberry fruit with some spice and earth jump from the glass of the 2008 Lytton Springs, a blend of 74 Zinfandel, 21 Petite Sirah, and 5 Carignan. Dark ruby with a nice tannic overlay, the wine was aged 15 months in American oak. Spicy, impressively rich, with good acids and loads of concentration, this is a beauty to drink over the next 5-7 years.
