I know this is an entry level wine for Ramey. I always trust Ramey, especially for their Cabs and Chards, but this does not measure up= just ok and not worth the price

WOTN against some good wines like a 2013Paul Hobbs Beckstoffer. It's too bad that this wine doesn't make it in to too many cellars because it is special. Everyone's favorite

different experience than other posters. 1st day maybe 90pts, second day it just fell apart- did not even finish bottle- way over priced

A great bottle- was not decanted but I needed something for my son's 47th bday. One of the best bottles I,ve had in a long time. Cherry dominated the taste, so well balnanced. Glad I have 3 bottles of Beta left.

I liked it better than the 2018. Smooth, balanced, touch of acidity, nice fruit. You can't go wrong with Ridge, consistently delivers. Always a good value and readily available/.

I had this wine 18 months age, same restaurant, same friends. I rated it 98pts then and 97 tonight. Excellent, big dense dark fruit, well balanced- really great wine for an average vintage. Both of my ratings are well above other posters but I'll stick with an excellent rating- not sure what others are getting.

I was surprised that I still had this bottle
in my cellar. It was great, not complex but good acidity and fruit. Dennis and I both enjoyed the bottle and his wife called wanting to buy him a bottle for Christmas since he enjoyed it so much, just a great value. Clearly,no more in my cellar!

don't laugh, but this was the best white wine I have ever had and I have had a number of much more expensive white wines, but wow. Tangy acidity with crisp fruit, loved it.

Took to Selden Standard in Detroit, really great meal with dishes to share. Wine was really big for a Pinot, rich fruit.

First, it's not worth $100. Secondly, maybe I drank it too young. Thirdly, maybe Bedrock's not great at Cabs. Decent acidity, nothing special.

One of the best Bedrock wines I've had. (that's saying a lot) good mouthfeel, rich, balanced, delicious. Carlilse also makes a great zin from this field.

good wine, but I like Paso Robles' Syrah's a lot better, especially given the price. Strong meaty, smoke flavor, little fruit

I love this wine, it's a good thing because I have more of these than any other wine. When I drink one of these i just thoroughly enjoy it. I won't rate it higher because I can't say it has any quality that others would think exceptional. I have to be content with just loving it if that resonates with others or not.

disappointing, nothing special on first day, 2nd day was dramatically better- good depth, balanced, 92+. You would think I would have learned to air wines long enough to get them closer to optimum drinking place.

decent, a little funk, I'm getting a little varnish?? on the nose. Tannic aftertaste I would guess it's past it's optimum drinking window.

2nd day notes, excellent. 38% Graciano, 26% Syrah, 21% Mataro, and 15% Grenache. I really have come to like these unusual blends from Paso Robles. Smooth with good acidity

I normally do not drink Bedrock wines early and don't remember drinking a barbera before, but this was delicious. Good fruit, but not sweet, balanced, womderful wine

Did not care for the wine, did not even finish. Was my bottle an outlier or just not a good pinot?
