Ridge Paso Robles Zinfandel 2022 | 750ml

93 Wine Spectator
Brambly and dynamic, with cherry and raspberry flavors highlighted by briar patch, pepper and roasted anise notes. Finishes with zesty tannins.

92 James Suckling
This full-blown, full-bodied wine is ripe and rich, oozing blackberries, black cherries and dark plums on moderate tannins. Made from the Benito Dusi Ranch.

The 2022 Zinfandel Paso Robles is very aromatic and expressive, belying any heaviness, overripeness or heat one might expect from this warm region in a warm season. Spiced cherry, blood orange, tobacco, cinnamon and leather layer atop a tense, slightly edgy mineral core that keeps this abundantly fresh. Surprisingly, it is light on its feet, especially considering the inclusion of 5% Petite Sirah in the blend (mainly perceptible in the wine’s purplish hue), and it goes down easily.

90 Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
Containing 5% Petite Sirah, the 2022 Zinfandel Paso Robles featured an even-keeling mixture of dark fruit, dried tobacco and allspice aromas. The palate is luscious and succulent, leading to a balanced, sweet-fruited, simple finish. Delicious and straight to the point, it's perfect for early consumption.
