2013 Ridge Monte Bello

Community Tasting Note

Likes this wine:

91 Points

Friday, November 2, 2018 - We decanted for only 30 minutes. Wine was quite closed. Good structure and balance. Blackberries, cassis and sweet tobacco. My first Monte Bello. I expected far more given price and reviews. A wine to revisit no before 5 or 10 years.
