About Chehalem
Almost thirty years ago Harry Peterson-Nedry began scouting potential vineyard locations in Oregon's burgeoning wine country. He soon discovered what's now called Ribbon Ridge, an ancient, uniform sedimentary hillside at the extreme western end of the Chehalem Mountains. There, he planted the Ridgecrest Vineyard, Chehalem's oldest, in 1982.

($44) Light red. Spicy redcurrant, strawberry and pomegranate on the nose, picking up smoky herbs, cinnamon and mace with air. Pliant red berry flavors show a liqueur-like sweetness but also nervy minerality and a deliver a punch of candied rose. The spice notes repeat on the long, juicy finish. This is delicious.
