How is this my last bottle? Part of a Ridge night with my wine group at a NYC Steakhouse. We had in order, 2021 Ridge Grenache Blanc Adelaida Vineyard, 2020 Ridge Pinot Noir Corralitos Gali Vineyard, 2020 Ridge Merlot Estate, 2018 Ridge Cabernet Sauvignon Estate, 2019 Ridge Zinfandel Boatman Graveyard, and a 375ml bottle of the 2009 Lytton Estate Viogner. We drank the wines in accending order of alcohol. Everyone loved this!

Blind. Immediately reminding me of Rhone white but with less structure and sweetness. Said Roussane/Grenache Blanc at some point and ended up as the closest. Bit simple. 89

Medium golden yellow in color. Full, forward & fragrant nose of ripe fruit aromas of pears, stone fruits, melon & citrus notes of lemons/limes with overtones of floral notes of honeysuckle & minerals, honey & some spice notes in the background. Medium light bodied with a good concentration of well balanced & smooth textured, ripe fruit flavors of lemons/limes, stone fruits & Asian pears with minerals, a bit of honey & a slight hint of spices. Lingering finish. Drinks quite well at present & may benefit from an additional year of aging. Predominantly Grenache Blanc with 6% Roussanne and 4% Picpoul.

This wine was opened to kick off the evening. Palate primer per
Finished before I was able to focus on it. Crowd pleaser and great QPR.

I brought this to an Argentinien restaurant to share with my wine group. No really tasting notes.
