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 to fifteen 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.

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. 2022 was the third year of drought with only 635mm of rainfall throughout the season. Thankfully, spring rains helped the vines but caused shatter to the Zinfandel, reducing the crop. Two heat spells pushed the vines to another early harvest which took place between 19th August and 12th September. The grapes were crushed and fermentation proceeded with natural yeast. The wine was aged for 16 months in air-dried American oak barrels (17% new, 3% one-year-old, 10% two-year-old, 10% three-yearold, 60% over five years old).
