Current Goal

I would like to travel back to Sonoma California, just north of Healdsburg, CA to Ridge Vineyards, specifically the Lytton Springs Vineyard. I would appreciate some photos of me and other fine vintages I may meet along the way...please no Beringer, Yellow Tail, jug wine or box wine....EWWWWwwwww!

About This Item

The Ridge on top of the fridge...wine fridge.

Corky is the cork to a fantastic bottle of Zinfadel enjoyed on March 24, 2005. Specifically he was popped out of a 2002 Ridge Lytton Springs Zinfadel.

Tasting Notes: Deep ruby in color, showing ripe plum fruit, spice, briar, Dry Creek earth. Notes of pepper, dried briar leaf, black and red licorice. Rich, lively, elegant. Chalky tannins. Fantastic length.

It would be cool if you also enjoyed some good wines and maybe leave some tasting notes as well.

Wine was purchased from D. Yannitelli Fine Wine and Spirits in Cold Spring, NY.

I'm not a wine drinker by any stretch but I'd like to help move corky along. I can get it as far as Texas next month, but please let me know if you don't want it to sit that long before moving. I'll even drink some wine in honor of corky if that'll help.

Was unable to drop Corky in May, at summit of Race Mt (on the App Trail), as planned. At request of owner, I dropped him now, rather than hold onto him for an August drop in VT.

Will try to drop Corky as far west in MA as I can. At least will get him beyond 495 belt.

I'll drop it in a bug hotel, hoping a CA bound traveler will come by.

  • Where's Corky? Can you find Corky among the..um...corks?
  • Just hanging..... I think Corky felt at home here. Hopefully he'll land in another cellar soon!

It just so happens that part of Smackdown has a wine cellar. 🙂
