Merchant's description

Ridge Monte Bello Cabernet Sauvignon 2010 is a medium-bodied Bordeaux-style red wine from the Santa Cruz Mountains region of California. Founded in 1959, Ridge is one of the most celebrated producers of site-specific wines in California. Traditional winemaking techniques determine Ridge`s sought-after style. natural yeast fermentations, submerged-cap fermentations, clarification by racking and filtering only when necessary for stability. The winery and estate vineyards are located on Monte Bello Ridge in the Santa Cruz Mountains. "Ridge’s iconic Monte Bello Proprietary Red (no longer called Cabernet Sauvignon) is one of the candidates for the longest-lived Bordeaux blend made in California. Even vintages from the late sixties and early seventies are still vibrant wines. The winery owns just over 100 acres of Cabernet Sauvignon vines, and production varies enormously based on the mountain climate." Robert Parker
