Chehalem 2013 RR Pinot Noir (Ribbon Ridge)

Country: US / RR
Variety: Pinot Noir Oregon
Winery: Chehalem / Ribbon Ridge

The RR wines receive special packaging, but little technical information is provided. Though this is a 2013, it’s of a piece with the winery’s 2014 Pinots, which is to say that lemony acids and a plethora of herbal components overshadow the fruit. There are hints of wild berry, and a finish with light suggestions of chocolate.
