Description

2022 Ridge Vineyards Monte Bello Cabernet Sauvignon Blend 750mL

The 2022 Ridge Vineyards Monte Bello Cabernet Sauvignon Blend 750mL is a premium Bordeaux-style blend from the Santa Cruz Mountains in California. The 2022 vintage was shaped by a third consecutive year of drought, leading to lower yields and concentrated flavors. The wine, aged in 100% new American oak, is highly rated by critics for its complexity, balance, and aging potential.

 

Tasting notes

  • Blend: The 2022 vintage consists of 86% Cabernet Sauvignon, 10% Merlot, 2% Petit Verdot, and 2% Cabernet Franc.
  • Winemaker's notes: The winery's notes describe a wine with a saturated ruby color and aromas of blackberry, black currant, fennel, and dry chaparral. The palate features rich mountain bramble and cassis with polished tannins, full body, and a long finish showing limestone minerality.
  • Critic tasting notes:
    • Owen Bargreen (99 Points): "A totally stunning wine from a warm vintage," noting silky tannins, a core of dark currants, figs, and chocolate, and great cellaring potential.
    • Jeb Dunnuck (98 Points): Mentions a "wow" wine that is herbal and lightly spiced, with a velvety texture and well-resolved tannins.
    • Robert Parker's Wine Advocate (96 Points): Describes it as a "rich and distinctly firm iteration" with notes of red and black fruits, vanilla, chocolate, and dried herbs.
    • Decanter (97 Points): Notes that the wine is tightly wound and expressive in its youth, with black fruit
