My first lot included this very interesting wine:
2011 Ridge Carignane Triangle
Light weight with bright stone fruit, tacky tannic acid, and a bit of dark undertones. Cinnamon, Some floral notes and a viscous silky core. Pretty. Drinking well and will probably hold on for several years, although I'm not sure if it would improve. I would pair this with an acidic meal, perhaps tomato sauce, poultry, or lean meat. A feminine wine with character.
B/B-
I'm looking forward to a lot more off the beaten path Ridge wines in the future.
