Pinot Noir Marine Sedimentary 09

Review:

The one barrel Marine Sedimentary bottling takes wine from selected blocks and barrels from across our entire Estate Vineyard as well as from a couple of parts of Whistling Ridge Vineyard and the intent is to show off the minerally, dense, darkly fruited yet elegant traits that we believe to be the hallmarks of great wines from the Ribbon Ridge Appellation. The darkness and power of the Estate bottling, richness of the Bonshaw bottling, the minerally elegance of the Old Vine, and complexity of the Etzel and the extreme high-toned nature of Whistling Ridge are captured in this fantastic bottling. We will admit that this tends toward the wonky, dorky side of Pinot Noir making but look at what type of winery we are and what we do! This is a delicious, unique and captivating Pinot that encapsulates the distinct qualities that our small appellation brings to bear on our fruit and wines. - the winery
