Ridgecrest Wind Ridge Block Estate Pinot Noir Ribbon Ridge OR 2022
Father and daughter run operation Ridgecrest is exactly the type of estate we seek out for our members. With over 40 years of experience farming in the Willamette this is a duo on top of their game. In dad (Wynn's) words this "is beautiful, fresh and complex, with a deep core of lengthy tannins and mineral-driven earthy fruit"
Tasting Notes: This Pinot Noir features ripe raspberries and strawberries on the nose, complemented by a saline note. The palate offers tart red raspberries joined by white tea and lemon citrus, suggesting a wine with a chewy texture that benefits from decanting.
