Produced from old vines in the Santa Cruz Mountains, Monte Bello Cabernet Sauvignon is the legendary flagship wine from the iconic Ridge Vineyards. In many ways 2001 was an unusual year for Monte Bello with yields down, higher alcohol and an unprecedented 36% Merlot in the blend. This is an incredible release with exuberant and expansive notes of cassis, mulberry, plum, dark chocolate, cigar smoke, espresso grounds and graphite. Full-bodied and voluminous, it is silken in texture, has wonderful mid-palate intensity and culminates in an exceptionally long, savoury finish. An immense wine with at least another 10 years of potential aging.
