Ridge Vineyards Cabernet Sauvignon Bradford Mountain Paso Robles 1989 shiraz It was created in 1988Winemaker Notes: In 1989 the old La Cuesta clone of cabernet sauvignon at Bradford Mountain matured fully by the second week of October, producing an intense, very tannic wine. We fined with six egg whites per barrel and, in the final assemblage, included merlot from the lower vineyard and petit verdot from the upper to balance the tannins. The structure is that of a big, classic cabernet with lovely fruit and real depth.
