2011 Statement Pinot Noir
This wine is only made in very special vintages—and 2011 in our cellar was definitely special, being one of the two or three most intense, pure and ageable vintages I’ve seen. The wine almost vibrates with the acid tension, three-dimensional black fruit, almost spherically balanced with acid and tannin—the epitome of Ribbon Ridge’s red-black spice and mineral Pinot Noir expression. Alcohol is low to perfect this balance, pH likewise, and acids focused. This wine will age exceptionally—expect it to reach 30-plus with ease
