About

In 1962, Ridge Vineyards made its first Monte Bello, and two years later its first zinfandel. Since that time, RIDGE has championed single-vineyard winemaking, searching California for those rare and exceptional vineyards where climate, soil, and variety are ideally matched.

At Ridge Vineyards, we call our approach to winemaking “pre-industrial.” We believe that for anyone attempting to make fine wine, modern additives and industrial processing limit true quality. Relying on the natural yeast, we let the terroir define the wine and make our winemaking decisions based upon taste, not a recipe. We believe in transparency and as a result, we include a list of ingredients on every wine we make. We are committed to sustainability and organic farming and we are one of the largest growers of organically certified grapes in Sonoma County and the Santa Cruz Mountains appellation.
