The 2016 Pinot Noir Ribbon Ridge is pale to medium ruby-purple in color with a lovely, open nose of warm red cherries and red berries with touches of cloves and cinnamon plus wonderful earthy aromas of dried leaves and a faint herbal suggestion. Medium-bodied, it has a great concentration of perfectly ripe black fruits in the mouth with spicy touches and a line of crushed rock minerality, with fine-grained tannins and wonderful freshness, finishing long and spicy. 515 cases produced.
