Ridge East Bench Zinfandel is a red wine from the Dry Creek Valley in Sonoma County, California. It's made entirely from Zinfandel grapes grown on the East Bench of the valley, a region known for producing high-quality Zinfandel wines. The wine is aged for 14 months in a combination of American and French oak barrels, which imparts subtle notes of vanilla and spice to the wine's aroma and flavour.
On the nose, Ridge East Bench Zinfandel has an intense aroma of blackberry, raspberry, and cherry, with hints of cedar and spice. On the palate, it's a full-bodied wine with firm tannins, flavours of black cherry, plum, and a hint of cocoa. The wine has a smooth and velvety texture, with a good level of acidity and a long and lingering finish.
Ridge Vineyards is a renowned winery in California, known for producing high-quality and age-worthy wines. They use sustainable winemaking practices and a combination of traditional and modern techniques to produce wines that reflect the unique characteristics of the region.
This Zinfandel pairs well with roasted meats, barbecue, and hearty stews and is an excellent choice for wine enthusiasts who prefer a full-bodied red wine with a complex and bold flavour profile. It can be enjoyed now or cellared for further aging.
