**2023 Ridge Lytton Springs Dry Creek Valley Red** This polished Zinfandel blend showcases the distinctive character of Dry Creek Valley’s gravelly terroir, with 76% Zinfandel anchored by Petite Sirah, Carignane, and supporting varietals. Bold blackberry and plum notes meld with savory anise, black pepper, and dark spice, while well-integrated American oak provides structure without overwhelming the wine’s natural elegance.
The palate is medium to full-bodied with refined tannins and vibrant acidity that carries through to a long, layered finish. This is a wine built for cellaring—it will develop beautifully over the next decade—but remains approachable and rewarding now. Pair with grilled lamb, herb-crusted beef, or aged cheeses to complement its spice-forward profile and mineral undertones.
