2021 Reserve Pinot Noir
2021 Reserve Pinot Noir
Sourced from the eastern planting of the Estate Vineyard Pommard and the Dijon 115 pinot noir clones, the Resreve is a reflection of Jeff's favorite 8 barrels of the vintage. Its aim is to capture the beauty and uniqueness of each vintage and to express all the characteristics Ribbon Ridge, the vineyard and the season have to offer. Pommard clones from the eastern block of the vineyard make up 80% of this wine, combined with 20% Dijon 115 clones from the middle block. This combination makes for a bold, complex, and earthy pinot noir. Slightly opaque with a deep ruby color, it has a presence of dark tart cherry and wet stone, plus cedar and lavender on the nose. The palate is beautiful and opulent, presenting plum, black currant, and almond notes. Full-bodied and layered, the Estate Reserve continues to linger pleasantly and is hard to resist for almost any Pinot Noir connoisseur.
