Description

Ridge Cabernet Sauvignon 2015
Monte Bello
owc
Bottle (3)

Property from the personal collection of a prominent restaurateur. All wines purchased on release through direct distribution channels and stored in a temperature and humidity controlled cellar.

"The 2015 Monte Bello is just as phenomenal in this tasting as it has always been. Explosive and powerful in the glass, with fabulous textural richness, the 2015 has a lot to say. Super-ripe red and purplish berry fruit, rose petal and spice add myriad shades of complexity as this towering Monte Bello shows off its personality and pedigree. Rain during bloom reduced the crop significantly. Moderate temperatures with no heat spikes led to a long, relatively cool growing season." (98 pts. Antonio Galloni, Vinous, Aug. 2018)

“The 2015 Monte Bello is still a well-protected fortress of a wine. A more red-fruited and tobacco-laden Monte Bello, it’s mouthwateringly juicy and stubbornly tightly wound, giving rise to the question of whether it will ever let its guard down. Even so, the stuffing is undeniably there, so you might as well just keep waiting. Of course, the risk is that this wine may outlast all of us before it ever truly gives up the goods. Check on it again in five years.” (96 pts. Billy Norris, Vinous, Sept. 2024)
