Pale to light red in color with an elegant nose of lemongrass, mint, oregano, subtle perfume, rose water, and cranberries. Fresh and delicate with a sophisticated balance of mossy earth and Rainier cherries. The mid-palate is full of bramble and savory chanterelle. The whole-cluster tannins are structured and while approachable now, they will age gracefully in the bottle.
Brooding, with an appealing earthy, forest floor accent to the blueberry and dusky spice flavors as this builds tension and density toward medium-grained tannins. Hands off for now. Best from 2024 through 2034.
Vibrant fruit here mixed with earthy mushroom notes. Red and purple plums, porcini, star anise, tea leaves and savory spices. It’s tight in tannin texture yet aromatically open, with a medium body and silky, savory layers. From biodynamically grown grapes. Drink or hold.
Medium ruby, the 2021 Pinot Noir Le Pré du Col Vineyard has pretty scents of raspberry, cranberry, bergamot and mushroom, revealing more aromatic detail as it spends time in the glass. The light-bodied palate is chalky and refreshing with concentrated fruit and loads of botanical and floral accents on the long, layered finish. I love this fragrant, detailed expression!
In their best expression, Ribbon Ridge pinots seems to teem with fruit, sumptuous, generous and comfortable. This is what Josh Bergström has pulled off here, from a vineyard the family has leased and farmed since 2006. Scents of crushed rose petals and cranberry give lift to otherwise succulent fruit, with a fine, saline minerality that tethers the richness and keeps the wine on a straight course. For duck confit.
