The 2019 Carignane Buchignani Ranch is another must-have wine in this range from Ridge. Racy and beautifully perfumed, the Carignagne offers tons of varietal character, amplified by the natural intensity these old vines give so naturally. Bright red cherry/plum fruit, cinnamon, new leather, cedar and pipe tobacco meld into the layered, persistent finish. This is an especially ripe style, but it works so well. Antonio Galloni, Vinous
