First release: Ridge Green & Red Zinfandel 2023

Green & Red Zinfandel 2023 is a poised and characterful expression of Napa Valley zinfandel from the rugged slopes of Chiles Valley. Drawn largely from the high-elevation Tip Top and Chiles Mill vineyards, the wine combines mountain freshness with classic Ridge precision. Aromas of blueberry, orange zest, tobacco leaf and wild herbs lead into a supple palate layered with boysenberry, raspberry and dark chocolate. Despite its generous fruit, the 2023 remains balanced and finely structured, with bright acidity and savoury detail carrying through a long, polished finish. Approachable in its youth, it should continue to evolve gracefully over the next six years. Drink this year to 2033. 13.8%
