  May 30, 2008 - Ridge Monte Bello Tasting (The Wine Summit, Lake Louise, Alberta): 93% CS, 7% M – 12.9% ALC.
  Medium dark, mostly garnet hued, with an amber rim; on the nose black currant – pronounced cedar; elegantly styled, with great depth of flavours; balanced as between the fruit, acidity, with most of the tannins fully integrated; nice show of extract – mouthful of black currant fruit which persists through to a lingering finish. Most attractive wine !
  Paul Draper felt they were looking for maturity in the grapes at harvest, and this selection resulted with this blend.
