Ridge California Coast Range is a beautiful new Zinfandel blend from one of the top winemakers in California. “This year’s ideal spring resulted in some of the highest yields of recent years. Despite rigorous thinning, yields were 20% above average, providing grapes for this adventurous blend. More fruit-forward and meant for immediate enjoyment, we decided to bottle this wine separately. Nine months of aging in the barrel has added complexity. Delicious now, it will be at its best over the next four years.”--Ridge Vineyards

"A new cuvée for Ridge, the 2025 California Coast Range is an unbelievably delicious kitchen-sink blend from sites spread across the state. It's primarily Zinfandel, with Carignane, Petite Sirah, Cabernet Sauvignon and a dollop of Gamay — unorthodox? I'd say so. Wild strawberry, black cherry and orange peel spring from the glass. The 2025 is crunchy, juicy, velvety and super fresh, delivering surprising complexity along the way. It just screams “drink me!” You'd be hard pressed to find more bang for your buck anywhere in the United States. Best of all, there are 28,000 cases to go around.”--Vinous, 92 points!
