Deep aromas of blackberries, cocoa, leather and graphite. Muddy and awesome especially for under 20 bones. — 11 years ago

My last one unfortunately... Took a while for this wine to really show is what it got. Great success. — 10 years ago
This wine is compelling. Just when I'm ready to write it off as 'vintage' it tightens up & 'producer' takes the lead role. — 13 years ago
2000 Ridge Monte Bello Cabernet Sauvignon:
From Jay. Dark ruby red in color. A preponderance of black forest fruits on the nose mixed with cedar and some menthol and a touch of spice. Rich blackcurrant, black cherries and traces of vanilla on the palette. This is a solid effort from Ridge and although it does not have the makings of an epic wine it will certainly improve with time. Drink 2017 to 2030. 91/100
