2022 Ridge Vineyards Monte Bello Cabernet Sauvignon Blend 750ml

2022 Ridge Vineyards Monte Bello Cabernet Sauvignon Blend 750ml

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
