2012 Ridge Lytton Springs - USA, California, Sonoma County, Dry Creek Valley (12/16/2016)
Quick pop and pour from 375ml, and the wine just powers through with all the bramble, spice and lingering depth that I always expect from Lytton. Drink whenever!

When asked what were my "epiphany" wines, Lytton Springs is always one of my answers--back in the 70's when I returned from Germany and worked in Monterey County.

Nice!

1995 Lytton and Geyserville were the wines that hooked me on Ridge many years ago.

1995 Lytton..me too. Once at a Chinese restaurant downtown (they did not have a liquor licence), a group of us drank an earlier vintage from a teapot!!!
