2024 Pinot Noir, Russian River Valley
TASTING NOTES
This wine opens with an enticing bouquet of cranberry, black plum, and the comforting scent of freshly baked cherry pie, with underlying mineral notes adding depth. On the palate, it offers rich flavors of cherry cola and boysenberry, balanced by the warmth of pie crust and a subtle touch of tobacco. The smooth finish and velvety mouthfeel round out this elegantly structured wine, making it a true pleasure to sip.
SUGGESTED FOOD PAIRING
The wine’s smooth texture and layered flavors make it a fantastic match for dishes with a bit of richness. Try it with roasted or grilled meats like lamb or pork, especially when paired with a fruit-based sauce. It also pairs wonderfully with wood-fired pizza, particularly those with savory toppings like sausage or mushrooms. For cheese, Brie, Gouda, or aged cheddar would complement the wine’s depth beautifully.
