What We’re Drinking – Ridge Zinfandel 2015

Really terrific blackberry and blueberry flavors waft up on the nose. Rich blackberry and boysenberry are joined by just enough tart raspberry to give a backbone. Hint of cinnamon, nutmeg, and black pepper roll through the mid-palate. This a delightful and complex wine, fruit forward and spice back. Pair it with barbecued pork ribs. Highly Recommended. 90 points. DBH.
