This is the 35th vintage of Ridge Geyserville, and it would be hard to name a California wine that's been more consistently excellent over this extended period. Expansive, velvety, complex, balanced wine that has an attractive mix of ripe blackberries, plums, spicy oak, and a touch of mint. Delicious already, and Geyserville's have a tendency to age gracefully. (Unfortunately our stock won't last long.) - HK 2002-12-02
