"Since 1991, Ridge has made zinfandel from the old Pagani vineyard on the east-facing side of Sonoma Valley. Almost all the vines here were planted more than a hundred years ago. The vineyard's long survival is proof of its merit. An average site would have been abandoned during the thirteen years of Prohibition, or during the Depression. This 2008 Pagani shows a beguiling cherry preserve nose, highlighted by red plum, dried cranberry, an appealing mix of exotic fruit and spice on entry, bright flavors enhanced by firm acidity. Structured, balanced. Very long finish.

"Overall: pleasant; This wine was still very good. Definitely needs to be consumed now. It went great with the Ancho-Marinated Pork and Mango Skewers over Basmati Rice."
