Mature vines at this level deliver structure and complexity beyond entry-level regional whites
they reward patience but drink beautifully now with just a little air
utilizing biodynamic practices to ensure the Cabernet Franc interacts directly with the site’s fundamental tuffeau limestone subsoil
which is why we highly recommend their OTHER Hermitage

2021 Ridge, Estate Cabernet Sauvignon, Santa Cruz Mountains Price_250_Under Mature vines at this levelExcellent, ravishing, plush and opulent, but still finds its fruit kept in balance with earthy mineral notes and refreshing acidity. Ridge makes what we consider to be one of the historic, great Cabernet bottles in American history (Ridge Monte Bello Cabernet), which trades for $200+ and rightfully so! However, this wine, made from younger vines in the exact same Monte Bello Vineyard site, delivers an incredible value we are here for every year.
