Its Origins

Producer note: "Rebel Ridge draws its name from the majestic mountain 'ridge' where three visionary 'rebels' in the wine world would convene, amidst the sprawling Californian vineyards. Disheartened by the dominance of a few global giants dictating prices and stifling innovation in the wine industry, these rebels sought a departure from the norm. The head winemaker, hailing from the famous vineyards of Valpolicella in Italy, was particularly eager to harness the great California many terroirs. Their collective vision birthed a new era in winemaking – a style less bound by pretense and more inclined towards a "full-on fruit" experience. Rebel Ridge stands as a testament to their determination to break free from the confines of tradition, creating wines that resonate with the vibrant spirit of California, basking in the sun-drenched hours that define the region."

What The Critics Say

94/100 Sam Kim

"Rich and opulent, the wine shows summer peach, pineapple, toasty oak and butterscotch characters on the nose, which lead to a sumptuous palate delivering creamy texture and plush mouthfeel. Delectably expressed, making it highly enjoyable. At its best: now to 2027. April 2024." Drink 2024 - 2027
