Ridge Vineyards, a renowned winery in California, is celebrated for its commitment to producing high-quality wines with a focus on sustainable practices. The Lytton Springs Red Blend is a testament to their expertise, crafted from a blend of Zinfandel, Petite Sirah, Carignane, and Mataro grapes. This wine hails from the Dry Creek Valley in Sonoma County, a region known for its ideal conditions for growing robust red varietals. The winemaking process involves fermentation with native yeasts and aging in American oak barrels, which imparts a complex flavor profile of ripe blackberry, plum, and a hint of spice, balanced by firm tannins and a vibrant acidity. This red blend pairs beautifully with grilled meats, hearty stews, and aged cheeses, making it a versatile choice for various culinary experiences.
