501's, cowboy boots and zinfandel, America, FUCK YEAH! Rich with classic jam and cake batter, slippery with olive oil and alive with Mediterranean herbs. Not even the slightest bit hot, prune held off for now, but supple supple tannins make this NOT the Lytton Springs I have experienced before. You DO know I was tasting Ridge in a trailer while they were STILL pouring Lytton Springs Winery there, RIGHT? Here's another 13 that I'm kinda making a mono-brow at. VINTAGE OF THE DECADE, and I'm startin to believe that phrase (1997... 2004... 2010...) basically means yummy wine. This thing's barely 5 and easy as a girl from the 909. Hey, do you see me complaining? Actually delicate in the mouth, plush on most sides and definitely lower proof than a lot of things "zinfandel" lately. I'm guessin maybe even low 14's. Lick-her-lollipop cherry and a shard of acid splits the night, while more herbaceous forest undergrowth churns on and on hippily toward the peppery finish. You're gonna have a good time with this one, I'm George Zimmer, and I guarantee it. 2013 @ridgevineyards #zinfandel #lyttonsprings #drycreekvalley #sonomawinecountry 14-3 #pixel #libbeyglass (at Ridge Vineyards - Lytton Springs) https://www.instagram.com/p/B04xR6lnj7Y/?igshid=pdlal4i8ta0h

Met Angela Osborne, winemaker of @gracewine today and had an opportunity to have a unique and singular experience with single vineyard and "single terroir" Grenache from Santa Barbara Highlands, Santa Clara County, Santa Ynez Valley, Lytton Springs in Dry Creek Valley, and my favorite from Edna Valley. #grenache #atributetograce #skurnikwines #latinosporelvino #nyc #manhattan #ednavalley #santaclara #santabarbarahighlands #santaynez #lyttonsprings #biodynamic #wine (at La Sirena Ristorante)
