| 2011 Ridge Vineyards Zinfandel Ponzo Vineyards Russian River, Sonoma, California WB Rating: 86 Alcohol by volume: 14.1% Price at time of purchase: $30.00 (from winery) Type: Zinfandel Principal varietal(s): 97% Zin, 3% Petite Sirah In this cool climate vintage, the Ponzo comes across as relatively lean and underendowed. Bright berry nose with touches of dark cherry, vanilla, and toasty oak. Berry flavors continue in the mouth, but the wine seems constricted in the mid-palate and finish, which is assertively tart. Not my favorite year for Ponzo. - HK 2014-10-09 [Back] |
