With a dark and brooding color, Renegade Ridge immediately welcomes a warm round bouquet of black cherry and marionberry compote. Underneath the fruit, cedar and cinnamon prevail, with hints of a Pacific Northwest Forest in the early spring. The palate is characterized by umami richness, supported by fresh acidity and fine, well resolved tannins. Throughout the wine, there is substantial minerality due to the rich Jory clay loam soils in the Dundee Hills. The wine is an approachable and aromatically fruity Pinot Noir that will drink well in youth and will age gracefully for 4 to 5 years.
