Pinot Noir Russian River Valley, 2019

Price range: $ 30.00 through $ 108.00

While grown primarily in the sandy Goldridge soil, which tends to produce Pinot Noir with flavors of red fruits and orange peel, this wine also illustrates some of the deep, brooding black cherry character generally found in the region’s clay soils. It was bottled without fining or filtration, and should age gracefully for a handful of years.

Winemaker's Notes

Plums, roses, fresh compost on the nose surround a core of mixed-colored fruits with a hint of mushroom broth that is haunting and compelling. It is still quite influenced by pretty, youthful fermentation aromas that typically tone down a few years in bottle. It is medium-bodied, with good structure and a mouth-watering middle palate. In fact, the finish is so long and graceful, it makes one take another sip before the wine’s presence slowly fades like a very long ending to a western movie where the guy on the horse rides off into the sunset for what seems like an eternity while every grip, best, second best and worst boy is named in the rolling credits. In short, the wine is still quite young and very enjoyable and promising.
