Wine Review: Ridge Vineyards Lytton Springs Zinfandel 2014

Wine-Searcher’s David Allen MW, Master of Wine, continues the celebration of Californian Wine Month with a review of ‘2014 Ridge Vineyards Lytton Springs Zinfandel’ - a Bronze Medal winning wine from the 2017 TEXSOM International Wine Awards.

Ridge Vineyards is a famed Californian wine producer founded in 1962, and based in the Santa Cruz Mountains, but with vineyards in several parts of the state. Its flagship wine, Monte Bello, is a Cabernet Sauvignon-dominated Bordeaux blend known for delivering the complexity and elegance of Bordeaux wines, as well as typical California fruit intensity.

It is also well known for its range of Zinfandel wines and Zinfandel-based blends, led by the Geyserville cuvée. Wines made from Petite Sirah, Carignan and a Grenache – Mataro blend have also been longstanding features in the range, and Ridge has made a small amount of Chardonnay each vintage for many decades.
