Ridge Pagani Ranch Sonoma Valley Zinfandel Blend 2022 (1x75cl)

Ridge is known for single-vineyard bottlings, and this one carries the Pagani Ranch name in Sonoma Valley on the label. The point of a single-vineyard wine is that it tastes of one place rather than a regional average.

Zinfandel is California's signature red grape and usually gives ripe dark fruit, sweet spice and a generous, full-bodied feel. That makes it a barbecue and roast-meat wine — ribs, burgers, char siu, anything off a grill.

Tasting notes

Zinfandel-based reds usually show ripe blackberry and bramble fruit with sweet spice and a full, warming body. Serve it around 17 to 18°C.
