What to Expect
Zinfandel is considered America's own great indigenous grape, even though its origins lie on the Adriatic coast. Planted throughout California and the Pacific Northwest, Zinfandel is at its best in warm regions with cooler temperatures during harvest. The wines can range from off-dry Rosés, White Zinfandels, and light bistro styled wines, to big, rich powerful wines - even luscious wines for dessert bottling. The flavors range from plummy to raspberry, although deep blackberry fruit and brambly spice tones are most common.

User Reviews
This wine could stand for some additional aging but right now is quite drinkable. Dark berry taste and nose makes for a pleasant finish. I plan to order more.
Ridge Zinfandel Paso Robles is garnet in color with generous high-toned raspberry and red cherry fruits, violet-floral, candied plums, creamy oak, and a sweet appeal on the nose. Sweet and creamy cherry fruit, gentle tannins, medium body, gravelly earth. This is an approachable wine with a long finish
