First Delectable post, so we're starting it off with one of our own! 2011 Ridgecrest Pinot Noir from our flagship Ribbon Ridge vineyard site. Tasting GREAT but will continue to age beautifully with deep black fruit, rustic earthiness, currant, & spice notes.

Delicious, bold and full of black fruit. This is the 2010- you put your nose in the glass and know you're drinking a Pinot.
