2021 Russian River Valley Pinot Noir

A quintessential Russian River Valley character of red fruits, lavender, and citrus jump from the glass. Sourced from diverse sites throughout the AVA, the wine represents the best of the Middle Reach, Green Valley, Santa Rosa Plain, and the Laguna Ridge area. Each site has its unique signature and together they offer a complete picture of the beauty of Russian River Valley Pinot Noir. On the palate, the wine showcases the grace and power of perfectly ripened tannins with juicy acidity and an alluring finish of black tea and bergamot. There is broad appeal with this wine and it has a wide window of drinkability.

Reviews

93 / Wine Spectator

Alluring, with black tea and warmed raspberry and boysenberry compote notes leading the way, backed by additional mulberry, hibiscus and violet accents. Reveals racy acidity that’s nicely buried on the finish, allowing this to conclude with a flamboyant flourish of fruit. Drink now through 2030. — J.M.
