Ridge Vineyards Has Won The 2021 Best Fine Wine Producer in the Americas Award
The winner was announced at the inaugural Golden Vines Awards Ceremony on October 7th, 2021 in London at Annabel’s.
“The 2021 vintage marks our 60th vintage at Ridge. At Monte Bello, we recognized early on we had a vineyard capable of producing world-class wines. For Paul Draper, it was not enough to sell our wines locally. He believed that the quality of our wines was as good or better than the top wines from Bordeaux and other long established fine wine regions. He wanted our wines to compete with the top wines of the world in the top wine markets of the world: London, Paris, Hong Kong, and beyond. Today top restaurants and wine shops in 50 nations feature Ridge.”
-Mark Vernon, CEO
