Ridge 2012 Monte Bello earns 94 points
Wine Spectator
Our Ridge 2012 Monte Bello was awarded 94 points in the 29 February 2016 issue of Wine Spectator magazine (on newsstands now). Here are the tasting notes:
“A beautifully structured wine, with firm acidity and tannins that show grip and grit amid a core of dense, tense currant and blackberry fruit, turning juicy. Those seeking classic old-school Cabernet will embrace this. Cellaring for five to seven years is the right approach. Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot. Best from 2020 through 2035.” –JL
