Elegant and ripped sweetness are well balanced with structured mineral and acidity. Very good.

I usually loves Rhone/Grenache wines and this Gigondas is typical one. I enjoyed this wine, but I felt I should wait a couple of more years that the wine matured then the wine will become more mild.

Flavor of nuts, oak. Note of toast, vanilla. Acidity is very mild. Good wine.

"Thank you for your comment.
Actually, I'd like to try many Ridge wine this years including Monte Bello and also planning to buy cellar to age them.

I bought 2003 Del Carlo Ranch, and cannot wait to try it."

"Great note on the Ridge zin. I totally agree that they show there best with some age. I actually like them after about a decade but the tip to decant the wine will be very helpful to Snooth users.

Thanks for taking the time to post your note!"
