Coaxing out Renegade Ridge’s one of-a-kind voice requires patience and a closeness with the site—one earned from more than a quarter-century of farming its rows. The 2018 offers fresh floral fragrances of tea leaves, potpourri, and bergamot. A spotlight poised on the horizon, the wine projects finer, focused flavors of blood orange and red currants. Not one to leave the palate, it touts tremendous length and the tannic backbone necessary for extensive cellaring.
