ABOUT THIS WINE
From the winemaker: "First produced in 1966, this is our longest continuous zinfandel production. The grapes are grown in three adjoining vineyards on a single soil type, deposited by an ancient washout of the Russian River that carried river stone and gravel. It is approximately one-and-a- quarter miles long and a half-mile wide."
ABOUT THIS PRODUCER
Ridge Vineyards is one of America's most celebrated wineries, famous for its pre-industrial approach to winemaking, certified organic viticulture, and legendary single-vineyard wines. Operating out of Northern California, they are globally renowned for their historic Monte Bello estate and benchmark Zinfandels and Cabernet Sauvignons.
Ridge was founded in the early 1960s by four Stanford Research Institute scientists who purchased land and re-bonded an old 19th-century winery on Monte Bello Ridge. The winery shot to international fame during the iconic 1976 "Judgment of Paris" tasting, where its 1971 Monte Bello Cabernet Sauvignon placed fifth overall and later won the 30-year rematch.
