2012 Ridge Lytton Springs - USA, California, Sonoma County, Dry Creek Valley (2/22/2017)
This looks to be headed into a sullen phase. It still has great density and balance, but the aromatics are muted, and it shows much more mid-palate tannin. I think it is time to let this sit in the cellar for a while.

I have three of these so thanks for the note. I often let Lytton Springs or Geyserville cellar for about eight years after vintage.
