A fitting homage to our founder, Gary Andrus, Black Diamond is a wine with an adventurous, far-reaching spirit. The man who started Pine Ridge Vineyards was as intrepid as they come, an Olympic downhill skier with an unwavering love of both the outdoors and well-made wine.

With a lush nose of double black raspberry compote and Rainier cherry, this expert-level Cabernet Sauvignon is as exhilarating as fresh morning tracks, tempting you to try an aerial maneuver. Sourced from Red Mountain vines that cascade like a freestyle run, it delivers a rich sensory experience, blending juniper berry and powdered sugar with savory notes of chanterelles and Santa Rosa plums. It opens with a creamy, milk chocolate entry, flows into a round, juicy midpalate, and finishes with a freshly groomed, cocoa powder finale. Silky tannins leave a lasting impression, echoing the mountain’s impact on your body.

Perfect for après-ski, this cuvée is as delightful as fresh powder when paired with Bison Ragu, Tomahawk Ribeye, or Beet Carpaccio in the cozy warmth of the chalet.
