The rich fruit, refreshing acidity and firm tannin of this complex wine showcase the balance and quality typical of an exceptional vineyard. Approachable even as a young wine, this classic Zinfandel will continue to evolve over the next ten tofifteen years.

In 1972, Ridge made its first Lytton Springs from vines planted on the eastern half of the vineyard at the turn of the century. Both the eastern and western portions of the vineyard were purchased in the early 1990s. The vineyard is planted to Zinfandel and its principal complementary varieties.
