Ridge Vineyards 2019 Jeroboam Lytton Springs Red Wine

3.0 Liters. 73% Zinfandel, 16% Petite Sirah, 9% Carignane, 2% Mataro

The 2019 Lytton Springs checks in as 73% Zinfandel, 16% Petite Sirah, and the rest Carignan and Mataro. Revealing a translucent ruby/plum hue as well as beautiful cassis and red plum fruits supported by lots of savory herbs, orange blossom, cigar, and spice-driven aromas and flavors, this beauty hits the palate with medium to full-bodied richness, a seamless texture, moderate yet present tannins, and a great finish. While the Geyserville Cuvee has eclipsed the Lytton Spring in most vintages in the past decade, that's not the case in 2019. 95 PointsJeb Dunnuck, July 2021
