Vertical Trio

Three Vintages, One Ridge

2021 Pinotage
Dark cherry, plum, and tobacco open the glass, with earthy mineral depth underneath. Full-bodied and structured, with firm tannins and a long, spiced finish. This is a wine built for the table. Its bold character pairs exceptionally well with barbecue, holding its own against smoke, char, and rich grilled meats. A powerful expression of this coastal estate’s range.

2022 Fort Ross Vineyard Pinot Noir
Red cherry, rosehip, and crushed stone define the bouquet, with a whisper of coastal salinity. On the palate, brisk acidity and velvety tannins carry layers of wild berry and forest floor to a focused, seamless finish. A quintessential expression of the Fort Ross-Seaview AVA at its most precise.

2023 The Terraces Pinot Noir
Lifted aromatics of raspberry, tart plum, and iron give way to a lithe, silky palate with bright acidity and fine-grained tannins. The ocean’s influence is felt throughout. A fresh, structured expression of high-elevation cool-climate viticulture.
