2023 Pinot Noir, Russian River Valley
Highly aromatic, featuring a vibrant core of red currant and raspberry. On the palate, the texture is smooth and full-bodied, delivering concentrated flavors of dark cherry and plum. Well-structured with firm, integrated tannins that provide a persistent finish. The wine offers immediate richness while retaining the structure required for excellent aging potential.
Winemaker’s Comments: “This Pinot is a Tasting Room favorite and a beautiful food pairing wine. The Russian River AVA is perfect for growing Pinot Noir and this wine showcases the fruit-forward nature of the grape with roundness and a nice touch of acidity. Try it with salmon or grilled ribs to create a special meal.”

Wine Profile
Vineyard Notes
The Russian River Valley is defined by its strong coastal influence, as cool, fog-laden air moves inland each evening from the Pacific. This daily fog pattern moderates vine temperatures in the morning, slowing ripening and extending hang time. The resulting growing conditions promote gradual flavor development, balanced acidity, and the nuanced aromatics that are characteristic of Pinot Noir from this region.
