Ridge Dusi Ranch Zinfandel, Paso Robles, San Luis Obispo County, California, USA 2012

Description

Produced by Ridge Vineyards from the historic Dusi Ranch, this 2012 Zinfandel showcases the richness of old-vine Paso Robles fruit. The warm growing season produced a bold, concentrated wine with layers of ripe blackberry, raspberry, plum, black pepper, licorice, and baking spices. Aged in American oak, it offers firm yet polished tannins, balanced acidity, and a long, complex finish. Only 42 barrels were produced, making it a highly limited, collectible bottling with excellent aging potential.
