In 1962, Ridge 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 we begin with respect for the natural process that transforms fresh grapes into wine, and for the 19th century model of guiding that process with minimal intervention. When you have great vineyards that produce high-quality grapes of distinct, individual character, this approach is not only environmentally and socially responsible, it’s also the best way to consistently make fine wine.

Three Virtues Vineyards Chardonnay is handcrafted from three vineyards located in the heart of the Russian River Valley AVA. These vineyards are planted with in three distinct neighborhoods within the Russian River Valley: Middle Reach, Laguna Ridge and Green Valley. The 2017 Hartford Court Three Virtues Chardonnay reflects the combination of these three areas showing great complexity and purity of fruit. All the vineyard selections are harvested separately and barrel fermented in French oak barrels, followed by malolactic fermentation and bi-monthly lees stirring. The best barrels from each lot are selected and blended to create the final cuvée.
