2019 Russian River Valley Pinot Noir
2019 Russian River Valley Pinot Noir
Our Russian River Valley Pinot Noir captures the essence of this appellation as a world-class location for Pinot noir and the outstanding character of the 2019 vintage. It is a blend of several vineyards, with Wohler and Riddle vineyards comprising the core. In 2019, we included components from the famed Bucher Vineyard. Bucher provides additional layers of dark fruit, richness and depth. It adds another layer to the red fruit profiles and lush textures from Wohler and Riddle. The resulting blend offers freshness and balance with multiple layers of red and dark fruits, alongside earth and floral notes. Intriguing aromatics lead to a lush, silky texture.

"The appellation Russian River Valley Pinot Noir from this team is a perennial winner, and the 2019 Pinot Noir Russian River Valley does not disappoint. Revealing a medium ruby/purple hue as well as textbook notes of red and black fruits, forest floor, spice, and just a hint of cola, this puppy hits the palate with medium to full-bodied richness, subtle background oak, good mid-palate depth, and a great, great finish. I’d be thrilled to drink a bottle any time over the coming 7-8 years. It’s well worth seeking out." - Jeb Dunnuck
