The 2023 Pinot Noir Russian River Valley is also from the Russian River Valley. It’s a bright ruby color and boasts a seductive perfume with notes of fresh leather, ripe cherries, sweet spices, and forest earth. The palate is medium-framed and has a focused and bright feel, with refreshing, mouthwatering acidity, ripe tannins, and a gently tapering, spiced finish. Drink 2026-2040.

Winemaker's Notes

Aromas of cherry, raspberry, violet, allspice and earthy loam are followed by flavors of red cherry and raspberries. The dense entry is followed by a sweet and juicy mouth feel, supported by lively acidity, silky tannins and a bright mineral driven finish.
