"Ridge is now using a Geyserville designation for its proprietary red wine, still composed largely of Zinfandel. However, in 1991 the Zinfandel component is less significant than in 1990, representing only 50% of the blend. The balance is 30% Carignan and 20% Petite Sirah. Similarly-sized to the 1991, the 1990 Geyserville offers a rich, deep, raspberry-scented nose, and full-bodied, opulent, gloriously ripe, extracted fruit."
