2024 Ridge Vineyards Grenache Blanc, Paso Robles Cabernet soils and topography ideally suitedAged in stainless steel, neutral oak, concrete, and amphora, this results in a remarkably bright, saline driven example. This Paso Robles bottling comes from three different vineyards. Taut freshness, the limestone soils definitely play a role, says John Olney. Savory herbals and plenty of mineral lift. Fresh citrus and smoky, flinty stone notes persist throughout the finish in this Rhne white, focused on the purity of fruit. 94 POINTS JAMES SUCKLING,
