Russian River Valley Pinot Noir Reviews

May 12, 2015 | Decanter World Wine Awards
SILVER
Score: 87 | April 13, 2015 | Burghound

This is really quite pretty with its pure and fresh essence of red pinot fruit nose. There is good vibrancy to the lush and very supple flavors that possess both fine volume and texture that continue onto the acceptably complex and persistent finish that displays a very mild hint of warmth. This is attractive for the price, particularly as a choice to consume young.

An excellent choice for a regular, go-to Pinot, this is intense, with spicy floral scents and loamy earth, watermelon and dried berry notes that firm on the finish. Drink now through 2021.
