Steeped in history, Ridge Vineyards has been producing acclaimed wines since 1885. Located on California's Santa Cruz Mountains, their vines bask in coastal breezes and flourish in the region's unique growing conditions. Ridge's dedication to minimal intervention winemaking emphasizes quality grapes and traditional methods, resulting in distinctive and terroir-driven wines.
This Estate Cabernet Sauvignon boasts a captivating aroma of dark plum, black cherry, and cedar, hinting at the richness to come. Full-bodied on the palate, it explodes with flavors of blackberry, cocoa powder, and exotic spices, accented by a touch of refreshing peppermint. The wine's focused tannins and lingering finish promise a truly memorable experience.
The 2020 Cabernet Sauvignon Estate is a pretty, fruity wine to drink now and over the next few years. Dark red cherry/plum fruit, dried herbs, spice, rose petal and blood orange all open nicely. All things considered, the 2020 is very nicely balanced, especially for the year. There is a bit of low level smoke taint, but it lurks in the background and is less strong than in the 2020 Monte Bello.
