high glycerin and good acidity

a higher side of the vineyard and a lower one (near Damilano and Ceretto)

especially for near and medium-term drinking

I was mildly surprised to find a bit of reduction in the bottled version though not enough to completely hide the otherwise ripe

Ridge, Monte Bello other_regions high glycerin and good acidityRefined and complex, this wine has an expressive aromatic profile of cherry, blackcurrant, hints of mint, coconut and cedar wood oak. The palate is very elegant, expressing fine tannins, succulent acidity and long length. The first vintage of this wine was released in 1962, its made from a single vineyard planted in the Santa Cruz Mountains at 730m above sea level and just 15 miles from the Pacific ocean.
