1968 Ridge Ruby Cabernet Monte Bello

Community Tasting Note

wrote:

92 Points

Thursday, May 6, 2010 - From one acre on the Monte Bello ridge.
Nose - deep dusty redwood, deep red fruit, smoke, cinnamon, red plum, rhubarb.
Tart, smoky, smooth, red currant, dusty, hint of acetate. Had a sort of heavy dull something holding it down a bit, and also seemed to have the oomph to last open for awhile. Rated it 91 pts. Revisited late in the evening and it had lightened and brightened up - notably more enjoyable about 7 hours after opening. 92+ pts
