The vivacity and balance of a Californian red wine
The estate
Pioneer, Dr. Osea Perrone acquired land in the Dry Creek Valley region in 1885 and planted vines on this clay-limestone terroir. The first vintage was produced in 1892.
Purchased in 1959 and then renamed "Ridge Vineyards" in 1962, the estate expanded its vineyard and enlisted Californian winemaker Paul Draper to make the estate an icon among the greatest Californian wines.
Ridge Vineyards oversees an exceptional vineyard managed organically, recognised for the quality of its wines vinified in a non-interventionist manner and magnifying the purest expression of the fruit.
The wine
The Estate Cabernet Sauvignon from Ridge Vineyards is a Californian wine made from vineyards with clay-limestone soils located in the Santa Cruz Mountains appellation.
Vinification and ageing
Manual harvest and total destemming before fermentation of whole berries with indigenous yeasts. Natural malolactic fermentation. Ageing for 19 months in exclusively new American barrels.
Blend
This 2021 Estate Cabernet Sauvignon from Ridge Vineyards is the result of a blend of cabernet sauvignon (84%) and merlot (16%).
