The aromatics of the 2021 West Ridge are unusually powerful for this wine, which is typically our most delicate and transparent Pinot Noir. Crushed alpine strawberries intermingle with wet stone, sage, bay laurel, cassis, black current, and violets. The attack is glossy, full and sapid. The mouthfeel shows a remarkable combination of concentration with lift and elegance. 

The 2021 Pinot Noir Estate West Ridge is magnificent. Soaring aromatics make a strong opening statement. Wild dark cherry, lavender, mint, spice and orange peel lend nuance. This translucent, wonderfully detailed Pinot has so much to offer. Time in the glass brings out layers of savory and mineral complexity. Like all the 2021s here, the West Ridge possesses mind-blowing purity and exceptional
finesse. Drinking Window: 2026 - 2041
