(RR)Ridgecrest 2022 Pinot Gris Old Vine Estate Ribbon Ridge
100% Pinot Gris | Alc: 13.6%
Ribbon Ridge, Willamette Valley, Oregon

Winemaker’s Notes:
Ridgecrest 2022 Pinot Gris Old Vine Estate Ribbon Ridge is small and powerful, much like a ballerina, well-practiced, toned, elegant and lithe. Platinum and glossy on first view, clean cut and effusive of vanilla, juicy pear, light jasmine. The palate is fleshy fruit and green chartreuse, with an accent of salinity, warm brioche, and a sprinkle of parsley. The precision and fluidity of the texture is seamless, slightly viscous, definitely voluptuous, and the length goes on for ages. Fermented exclusively in aged French oak barrels. Our only regret is that there aren’t enough like her. Only 87 cases produced. She may be small, but she will not be forgotten.

Critical Acclaim:
“Aromas of fresh flowers, sweet citrus, peach and nutmeg. Medium-bodied and slightly off-dry. Fresh and stony with layered flavors of stone and tropical fruit and wet stone. Drink now. Screw cap.” 92 pts – James Suckling
