Ridge Vineyards

Ridge Vineyards, considered one of America's First Growths, is situated high atop the Santa Cruz Mountains. Monte Bello is first and foremost a wine place. That place—high atop the Santa Cruz Mountains underlain by decomposing limestone and Franciscan rock—produces a wine unlike any other. These low-yielding vines produce one of America's First Growths—the Monte Bello, a classic Bordeaux blend in which Cabernet Sauvignon dominates.
