Description

The 2011 Proprietary Red Geyserville (78% Zinfandel, 16% Carignan and the rest Petite Sirah, Alicante Bouchet and Mataro; 14% alcohol) was made from grapes harvested between September 21 and October 3. It reveals more stuffing than the Zinfandels as well as attractive earthy, briery, spicy fruit, pepper, meat and black cherry fruit. While it is not one of the legendary Geyserville efforts, it is a competent red wine to enjoy over the next 5-7 years.

Another stunner under the Geyserville moniker, this rich, nicely layered offering combines red and black berries with touches of dried leaves and black pepper in its mid-volume aromas. And, as promising as the nose seems to be, the wine is even more deeply packed on the palate where its blackberry, raspberry, darkly spiced fruit is joined by background notes of creamy oak. Latter palate tannin assures that this version of Geyserville will enjoy the long-aging abilities of its predecessors.

Connoisseurs' Guide to California Wine 95pts

Wine Enthusiast — This is a fine wine that shows its terroir. It's bone dry, moderate in alcohol, and with lovely acidity. The flavours suggest open fields of lavender and thyme, wild strawberries and cherries, and richer, spicier notes of red liquorice. A classic Ridge blend of Zinfandel, Carignane and other varieties, it's one of the most complex and enjoyable wines of its type in California.
