Ridge Vineyards, founded in 1885 by Osea Perrone, is a historic winery located on Monte Bello Ridge in California. The winery was later acquired by a group of Stanford Research Institute engineers in the 1960s, who began producing high-quality cabernet sauvignon and zinfandel wines. Under the guidance of winemaker Paul Draper, who joined in 1969, Ridge Vineyards has become known for its traditional, minimalist approach to winemaking, focusing on expressing the unique character of its vineyards. The estate expanded to include the Lytton Springs vineyard in Sonoma County in 1991, and continues to produce internationally renowned wines, primarily from cabernet sauvignon and zinfandel grapes.

Since its inception, Ridge has focused on single vineyard wines. Three Valleys is our winemakers wine, made by carefully combining parcels from a number of different vineyards. After aging for twelve months in barrel, the tannins have softened and brought out the fruit. Enjoyable now, this excellent wine will continue to develop over the next five years.

Nose of toasty oak, strawberry jam, mixed berry pie, black tea and baking spice. Layered black and blue fruit on the palate with milk chocolate, cherry, garrigue and textured tannins on the finish.
