From one of Ribbon Ridge's most respected sites, this Pinot Noir marks the return of a vineyard designate after spring frost in 2022. Grown on marine derived soils, Armstrong Vineyard has been worked with since 2010, consistently producing wines that combine muscular depth with an elegant, finely etched profile. Vincent Fritzsche has worked this site since 2010, bringing the precision of a small, gifted operation to wines made in strictly limited quantities. The 2023 release shows the site at its most complete, shaped by a cool growing season that preserved freshness while allowing full flavour development. Taste
Deep black cherry fruit leads, supported by floral lift and subtle earthy notes of Darjeeling tea.
