2020 Russian River Valley Pinot Noir
2020 Russian River Valley Pinot Noir
Our Russian River Valley Pinot Noir offers rich cherry flavors with hints of cola. It reminds us why this appellation is preferred by many for growing exceptional Pinot noir that is favored by connoisseurs. This 2020 vintage wine blends lots from several unique blocks, with Bucher and Riddle vineyards comprising the core. In 2020, we also included a block from Dorothy Cameron Vineyard to provide an additional layer of dark fruit and richness. It contributes depth to the red fruit profiles and lush textures. The resulting blend offers freshness and balance. Expressive aromatics greet your nose and lead to a silky texture and long finish.

International Wine Report
"I also loved the 2020 RRV Pinot Noir that is aged in 50% new French oak for 11 months before bottling. Featuring classic Russian River style with loads of fruit and texture, and has wonderful mid-palate depth and structure. Aromas of fresh red fruit, fresh pine needle, blueberry compote, and walnut shell pop from the glass while the palate sports ripe red cherry, wild strawberry, red licorice, and toasted fennel seed. It’s way more complex and interesting than the $45 price tag suggests. Finishing with mouthwatering acidity, medium silky tannins, and a medium body this has everything I love about a Sojourn Pinot Noir." - Jeremy Young, International Wine Report
