The 2014 Ribbon Ridge Pinot Noir comes from one large 80-acre holding of which Soter purchases from six different plots from the eastern to the western flank. It includes 25% whole cluster fruit and is matured in 33% new French oak. It has my pick of aromatics from the four Single Vineyard, perfumed with wilted rose petal scents infusing the red cherries and strawberry fruit. The palate is medium-bodied, fleshier than its peers with slightly earthy red berry fruit, and with commendable depth and balance on the finish. I appreciate the harmony and character here.
