Join Barriques and winemaker & COO Eric Baugher at the Ridge Vineyards Monte Bello winery for an exclusive virtual tasting of three wines from California's iconic Ridge Vineyards on Friday, January 22nd at 7pm. Black Friday/Cyber Monday Pricing Now Through Tuesday, December 1st.
It is generally folly to talk of producing a wine that is perfect. However, in the hands of the right winemaker and coupled with some of the most revered vineyard sites in California, the iconic Ridge Vineyards has accomplished this feat numerous times with wine from their Monte Bellow vineyard site.
In 1959, three Stanford engineering grads purchased the Monte Bello vineyard from a Dr. William Short who had previously planted Cabernet Sauvignon and Chardonnay. After their initial two vintages of high quality Cabernet they made for themselves, the trio decided to bond the winery and go full time into production.
In 1972 they employed Paul Draper, another Stanford grad to be winemaker/partner. Paul takes a hands off approach to their vineyards and winemaking letting the Monte Bello vineyard speak for itself. Starting under Paul's watchful eye, Ridge Vineyards top cuvee Monte Bello has earned 4 perfect 100pt scores, putting Ridge in a truly exclusive club in the wine world. The first 100pt Monte Bello wine was awarded in 1974, the same year that our guest host, Eric Baugher was hired as an assistant chemist at the winery and who has since worked his way up to his current head winemaker and COO role that he holds today.
The tasting pack for this virtual wine event will include 750ml bottles of the following:
Ridge Vineyards Chardonnay 2018 - Coming all from the estate Monte Bello Vineyard, the 2018 Chardonnay Estate offers a medium gold hue as well rocking notes of caramelized apples, white flowers, honeysuckle, and crushed rocks. These all carry to a medium-bodied Chardonnay with bright acidity, a focused, chiseled texture, terrific minerality, and just a kiss of background oak. It's going to benefit from 4-5 years of bottle age and have two decades of longevity, if not longer.-- 95pts Jeb
Ridge Vineyards Zinfandel Dusi Ranch 2018 - Coming from the Benito Dusi Ranch Vineyard in Paso Robles and 100% varietal, the 2018 Zinfandel Paso Robles offers a big, classic nose of plums, cigar wrapper, sandalwood, and candied violets. Rich, medium to full-bodied, beautifully fruited, and textured, it has good acidity as well as a clean, dry finish. It’s a classic Paso Robles Zinfandel to enjoy over the coming 7-8 years. --91pts Jeb Dunnuck
Ridge Vineyards Cabernet Sauvignon 2017 - Ridge’s 2017 Estate Cabernet Sauvignon is a fabulous choice for readers who want a Monte Bello fix now, without having to wait. Supple, radiant and silky, with tremendous balance, the 2017 is just flat-out delicious and utterly irresistible. Dark red cherry/plum fruit, mocha, licorice, sweet tobacco and a kick of American oak build as this sumptuous Cabernet Sauvignon shows its allure. The 2017 is an outrageously beautiful wine. Don’t miss it.--94pts Vinous
After purchasing your Ridge Vineyards Tasting Pack, you will receive an email with instructions on how to join us virtually, on the the 22nd. Event is limited to 24 tasting packs so get yours before they sell out. Cheers!

Madison Deserved Better
Format: Kindle
Madison was a beta...except she wasn't any longer. She was a late presenting Omega. And she was struggling. She was tall and thin, not tiny and curvy. She was opinionated. She was everything an Omega was not. After suffering through her first heat, her friends took her to Ardor, a club where Omegas came to safely find Alphas. She's not expecting much but then she connects with a sexy beta. And when she meets his Alphas, they set her body on fire. Maybe, she's found her no-strings-attached heat pack. Maybe, she's found something more.
I could not connect with the characters in this book, so their story never resonated with me. And there was no love story; there was sex. Grey made it clear from the beginning that he had a true love and it was his beta boy, Rian. He went so far as to reassure Rian “Say the word, I’ll never touch her again. Lucas can put the babies in her. I only need you, beta boy”. So, Madison was there for babies, no emotions needed. Nice. No, thank you. I want the Omega to be the center of their world, not an incubator. Lucas and Rian weren't any better. After her heat, they let her leave. Not one of them made her feel valued. No one gave her a reason to stay or even offered a cuddle. And the sex didn't even come across as mind-blowing. Madison deserved better.

Pretty Darn Good
Format: Kindle
So I’ve been on a omega kick and this definitely hit the spot. Madison was frustrating at times with how she acted towards Lucas, Gray, and Rian. It was like she said towards the end, she didn’t believe she deserved nice things.
It would have been nice to hear from her best friends again. They kind of were there in the beginning and the gone except for mention of text messages received from them. I feel like her friends would have been great help in encouraging Madison to go with the pack and never give Brent another chance because he was toxic.
I loved Rian. His personality was awesome. His humor. His ability to make Madison comfortable whenever she was feeling overwhelmed. And the fact he fell for her and she fell for him first. They are cute together.
I do feel like Lucas was the odd man out though. Like Lucas didn’t develop as much of a relationship with Madison. I would have really liked to see more development in the relationship between them. It was also the same with him and Rian. There is really no relationship displayed. Most of the relationship being displayed is between Rian and Gray.
Nevertheless, I loved reading about the dynamic that came to fruition during the entirety of this story. Madison finally got her happiness. And Brent finally got punched in the face. Everyone got exactly what they deserve.

Pack's Promise was okay but not great
Format: Kindle
Pack's Promise was okay but not great. I won't recommend it to anyone that I know.
PRO:
* Very likable characters
* Lots of steamy scenes that are written very well
* The spelling and grammar are good
* The punctuation is good with the exception of using hyphens instead of commas. Lots of hyphens. Lots and lots of hyphens.
CON:
* Almost no interactions with any characters outside of Madison and the pack
* Nearly no plot. They meet, get together for a heat, agree to make it permanent, done
* Quite a few typos such as extraneous words, missing words and words out of order
THINGS TO KNOW:
* More steamy scenes than storytelling
* A lot of MM & MMM, some MFMM during heat
