{"product_id":"ridge-vineyards-monte-bello-etats-unis","title":"Ridge Vineyards - Monte Bello - 2022","description":"\u003cp\u003eFrom the historic Monte Bello vineyard, this wine comes from high in the Santa Cruz Mountains of California, within the Santa Cruz Mountains AVA. The organically farmed plots are terraced between 400 and 840 metres above sea level, just 24 kilometres from the Pacific. Soils of fractured limestone, decomposed Franciscan greenstone and clay loam give the wine its characteristic mineral tension.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe grapes are harvested by hand, destemmed and then sorted. Each lot is vinified separately as whole berries with native yeasts, followed by pressing at dryness and a complete natural malolactic fermentation. Eighteen plots are selected for the blend. The wine is aged for twenty-one months in new barrels made of 95% American oak and 5% French oak, then filtered before bottling.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis wine reveals notes of \u003cstrong\u003eblackberry\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003eblackcurrant\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003eblack cherry\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003eplum\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003efennel\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003edried chaparral\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003etobacco leaf\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003ecedar\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003etoasted oak\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003ecrushed stone\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003eliquorice\u003c\/strong\u003e.
