2021 Beaux Freres The Beaux Freres Vineyard Pinot Noir | Ribbon Ridge AVA Willamette Valley Oregon 750ml

When the first few blocks were planted in 1988, no one could have predicted the consistent magic that would spring forth for decades to come. The old 1940s dairy pasture is now fully transformed to 25 acres of Pinot Noir vines whose forest perimeter creates a nearly mystical landscape.
The 2021 wine is full of classic features: ripe, dark cherry skins, orange zest, and subtle white flower and miso notes. | Beaux Freres

Layered and graceful, the 2021 Pinot Noir The Beaux Freres Vineyard pours a ripe ruby hue and reveals a beautiful perfume of orange rind, fresh red plum, clove spice, and rocky earth. Medium-bodied, with tremendous energy, fine tannins, a mineral texture, and a great, lightly toasty finish, it's a gorgeous wine to drink over the next 10-12 years. Absolutely beautiful. | 97, Audrey Frick for jebdunnuck.com
