The nose shows clean and beautiful notes of cherry

A wine that denotes aromatic sensations

with a seamless core of fruit that's framed by polished tannins and bright but nicely integrated acids

Reserve wines: 35% to 40% (including a portion in oak casks)

a touch of meaty savoriness and a sweet oak note from the get-go

Ridge Monte Bello 2022 Vintage_2010 The nose shows clean and97 100 James Suckling, JamesSuckling. com A fruit driven example of Monte Bello coming from the warm 2022 vintage. There are layers of blackcurrants, black cherries, cedar, licorice, olive brine and spices on the nose. The palate is full bodied with a seamless mouthfeel, fine tannins and bright acidity. Much to love for early drinking, but will age well.
