Ridge Vineyards Estate 'Monte Bello Vineyard' Cabernet Sauvignon

Regular price $70.00

This Monte Bello Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon offers a saturated purple color and notes of black cherry, chai spice, chaparral and toasted oak. With round, supple tannins, herbal forest character and a long finish, it pairs perfectly with a grilled burger topped with cheddar cheese. As a predominantly Cabernet Sauvignon wine, it boasts world-class quality and exceptional longevity (and with a decant, is approachable and lovely in its youth).

Details

From the Winery: In 1886 the first blocks of the Monte Bello vineyard were planted and construction on the winery begun. The first vintage was the 1892. In the early 1940s, the last of the old vineyard was abandoned; in the late forties a few blocks were replanted. Those cabernet vine —now over sixty-five years old—produced the first Ridge Monte Bello (1962) and subsequent vintages until 1974. By then other abandoned blocks had been replanted and their fruit considered for use in the Monte Bello. A number of those consistently produced a more accessible wine that developed its full complexity earlier and these were combined as the “Santa Cruz Mountains.” With the 2008 vintage the name of this stylistically distinct wine became the Ridge Estate Cabernet Sauvignon, stressing the principal varietal and the Monte Bello estate vineyard as its source.
