1999 Ridge Zinfandel Paso Robles

[winoweenie]

A brite bouncy beauty that makes it's statement with every sip. The brambly (WHAT be Brambly) fruit is accentuated with loads of sweet vanilla and a lovely nose that gives spicy nuances wrapped around cocoa and a tad of heat from the 14.4% alky. A complex zin that will smooth oput in the next 2-3 and IMHO raise the bar for the Dusi Ranch fruit. 25 per. 89/87. WW
