On my visit I thought the Old Vine was terrific but we didn’t taste the regular Estate.
My note:
Estate Old Vine Vineyard Ribbon Ridge 07. Another terrific medium weight wine. Perhaps more earth than the Whistling Ridge with lovely Asian spice. Some tannin remains and improvement is likely. A- with potential.
But don’t trust me, Tanzer loved it too.
A holiday two-pack of Pinot Noir. What we are offering is a bottle each of the 2007 Estate Pinot Noir and the 2007 Estate Old Vine Pinot Noir. Each bottle is signed by the owners, comes with descriptive tasting notes and, if need be, a greeting card as well.
This is what the International Wine Cellar had to say about these two wines:
2007 Patricia Green Cellars Pinot Noir Estate Ribbon Ridge 89(+?) Medium red. Cherry, flowers and earth on the nose. Youthfully subdued red berry and cherry flavors are firmed by dusty tannins and pick up a gentle spiciness with air. Bitter cherry skin and anise qualities define the finish, which is a touch clenched right now.
2007 Patricia Green Cellars Pinot Noir Estate Old Vine Ribbon Ridge 91 Bright red. Dark berries, cherry, rose and graphite on the nose. Mineral-laced cherry and black raspberry flavors are impressively precise, gaining a pleasant edge of bitter cherry skin with air. The minerality lingers on the persistent finish, adding cut to the cherry and dried rose flavors. This is balanced to age.
These wine normally retail at $36 and $40 respectively.
From now through the end of the year we are offering this two-pack for $50! This includes UPS ground shipping
