1998 Ridge Vineyards Lytton Estate Grenache Dry Creek, Sonoma, California WB Rating: 88 Alcohol by volume: 14.3% Price at time of purchase: $19.00 (ATP members) Type: Grenache Principal varietal(s): 75% Grenache, 20% Zin, 5% Petite Sirah Excellent Rhone-styled wine with aromas and flavors of raspberry, blueberry and black pepper (though the black pepper may have something to do with the pepper-crusted tuna being eaten at the same time). Like all Ridge wines, full-bodied, well-balanced, and fruit-driven. Ridge's Grenache seems to get better every year. (HK) - WB Team 2000-06-04 [Back] |
