Tasting notes
The pale ruby colored 2017 Pinot Noir Russian River Valley has a pretty perfume of violet, gravel dust and tangerine peel over crushed strawberries, raspberries and sweet cherries with an earthy undercurrent. It’s medium-bodied, silky, perfumed and fresh in the mouth with a gentle frame and long, sweet berry finish. This is a super approachable Pinot Noir that should drink well over the next 2-3 years.

This is an immediately vibrant pinot with fresh, sappy aromas of red cherries and red flowers, leading to a palate that has a smooth, plump delivery of fresh red-cherry flesh. Drink now.
The 2017 Pinot Noir Russian River Valley has a brighter, juicier style than the 2016 and has beautiful notes of tart cherries, wild strawberries, spring flowers, and earth. It's elegant, medium-bodied, has nicely integrated acidity, and a clean finish. It's another beautiful wine from this estate.
