Ridge Vineyards Cabernet Sauvignon Monte Bello 2018

97 Points - Wine Spectator

Very expressive, with warmed blueberry compote, menthol, sweet bay, steeped açaí and zesty sassafras notes all in the mix, carried by the brambly grip and a cold cast iron spine. A late echo of mesquite completes this remarkably complex and vivid offering. It should be fun to watch this develop in the cellar—best from 2022 through 2042.
