Natalie's Score: 92/100

This is Ridge Geyserville's 50th anniversary: this stalwart Californian red is loved by many. This is a blend of 70% Zinfandel, 15% Carignane, 12% Petite Sirah and 3% Alicante Bouschet grapes. Aromas of black fruit, dark spice and toasty oak. Pair with a rare steak. The 2015 vintage of Ridge's Geyserville is another blockbuster Californian red wine that could use serious cellar aging. A towering, monumental Californian red wine from one of the state's most respected producers. Full-bodied with a long finish.

Food pairings: barbecued meats, venison steak, bison burgers.

Reviews and Ratings

This is Geyserville's 50th vintage of California Ridge Geyserville 2015 from Zinfandel, Carignane, Petite Sirah and Alicante Bouschet red wine grapes sourced from the Alexander Valley and Sonoma County. Deep ruby in the glass with a pronounced nose of black cherry, earthy blue flowers and dark, rich plum and cake spice on the palate. Drink now or hold for three years. Pair with grilled meats. - Community Wine Reviews

Natalie MacLean is a new force in the wine writing world ‐ a feisty North American answer to Hugh Johnson and Jancis Robinson. She can write beautifully about wine.
