Ridge East Bench Dry Creek Valley Zinfandel - 2023 (750ml)
History
Ridge has made the East Bench as a single vineyard since 2006, one of the few Ridge zinfandels that is 100% zinfandel. The vineyard sits high atop the bench land that overlooks Dry Creek Valley from the east.
Winemaker Tasting Notes
Strawberry, clove and vanilla notes on the nose. Raspberry, sage, chocolate and black olive flavors give way to mouth-coating tannins with bright acidity and a long finish. Classic Dry Creek Valley Zinfandel. (SR 12/24)
Wine Advocate: 93 Points “The 2023 Zinfandel East Bench comes from vines planted in 2000 from Geyserville cuttings. Matured for 14 months in 14% new air-dried American oak, the nose is bursting with compelling layers of wild berry fruit, prosciutto, fennel seed, tobacco, sage and lavender. The full-bodied palate is highly concentrated and spicy. It’s framed by chalky tannins and vibrant acidity and has a very long, lifted finish.” -Erin Brooks (September 2025)
