Product Description
AVAILABILITY: 3 BOTTLES IN STOCKNOTES: In 2008, Occidental Wines purchased the 250-acre Bodega Ridge property, which lies on the same ridge as the Bodega Headlands property and clearly overlooks the Pacific. In 2012, the Occidental team began planting 65 acres of pinot noir on this property. From the very beginning, they hoped to produce two single-vineyard bottlings from each of these ridgetop properties. With the Bodega Ridge Vineyard pinot noir, their lineup was complete. From the Bodega Ridge property – where the winery and tasting room is located – will come the Cuvée Catherine and Bodega Ridge wines. Where the Cuvée Catherine is sourced from the area of the property nearest to the tasting room and winery, the Bodega Ridge fruit comes from the upper level of this vineyard, where there are more varied exposures and slopes.
A remarkably intense and vivid wine. Extremely pure and penetrating, with brilliant black raspberry and black cherry aromas, laced with blood orange. A touch of marine brine accents these aromas and imparts a distinct coastal character. Beautifully sculpted and detailed on the palate with bright red and purple berry flavors that unfold in the glass. Finishes with brisk acidity and a firm mineral backbone. It is rare for a wine with such personality and dimension to be so finely etched and light on its feet.
