Another fantastic Three Valleys from Ridge and one of the best Zinfandel values anywhere! "Three Valleys" is the proprietary name for the only Ridge wine blended from multiple vineyard sites. They select softer, more accessible lots from their single vineyards and, taking the role of winemaker literally, create a character they find most appealing. Younger vines from Lytton Estate provided most of the fruit; older vines on five small Alexander Valley vineyards and one Russian River vineyard make up the rest. This sixth vintage of Three Valleys contains the highest percentage of zinfandel to date. Sensuous structure and rich fruit give the wine immediate appeal; it will bemost enjoyable over the next five years.91 Points Wine Enthusiast "Editor's Choice: "This bottling defines such a style. It's dry and lithe in the mouth yet gently tannic, with suggestions of berry jam, bacon, grilled mushrooms and hints of balsamic and soy sauce."80% ZINFANDEL, 10% PETITE SIRAH, 5% CARIGNANE, 5% GRENACHE

One of the smoothest Three Valleys I've ever had. Always such a great value. If you're the type who carries a "house" wine, a great candidate for your resident red.

This. This is delicious. Excellent drinkability. On the bold, fruity side with a really pleasant, anise-y aftertaste.

Now that's a good Zin! Not much blue fruit. Still classic.

Fruity and supple. Some tobacco and a touch of spice. Very accessible. What more is there to say? Consistent, a go to for the price.

2013 Ridge Three Valleys. Practicing what I preach tonight pairing this with a nice T bone. Young yet interesting. Inexpensive yet complex.
