1990 Ridge Monte Bello, Santa Cruz County, California

Ridge Monte Bello, Santa Cruz County, California
Monte Bello has often been called America's First Growth, as it is the finest domestic example of a classic Bordeaux blend in which cabernet sauvignon predominates.

The Monte Bello vineyard, located only 15 miles from the Pacific Ocean, is part of the Santa Cruz Mountains AVA, California's coolest Cabernet Sauvignon producing area. The wine making approach is of minimum intervention, achieved by combination of natural, hands-off winemaking techniques: keeping all grape varieties and all parcels separate, fermenting in small fermentors using only natural yeasts, and transferring the separate lots into air-dried American oak barrels to undergo full, natural malolactic fermentation.Ridge Vineyards
