A truly unbelievable line-up, I have to say. The 1999 Geyserville was one of the most delicious library Zinfandels I have ever had …
Some brief notes, Haiku style:
2010 Ridge Vineyards Geyserville
A bounty of fruit;
a house built over forty
years; sublime safety.
-
2010 Ridge Vineyards Lytton Springs
Autumn curls ’round wet,
nutmeg mornings; fires start; first
kind words are spoken.
-
2009 Ridge Vineyards Estate Cabernet
Where crisp winds meet the
gravitas of forest, blues
gives ocean to sea.
-
2009 Ridge Vineyards Monte Bello
To disappear in-
to sleep is restful. To get lost
in dreams is divine.
-
1992 Ridge Vineyards Monte Bello
Wisdom’s cane taps on
cobblestone below; a knee
to sit on awaits.
-
1984 Ridge Vineyards Monte Bello
Rivers and mountains
bookend life; to see soul, one
must close all two eyes.
-
1999 Ridge Vineyards Geyserville
Wine imitating
the gods; more beautiful
than even the gods.
