The Russian River Valley, often called the heartland of California Pinot Noir, is shaped by the cooling influence of coastal fog that follows the river inland from the Pacific.

Ripe raspberry, dark cherry, and black fruit intertwine with fragrant hibiscus, floral notes, and a touch of vanilla. The palate unfolds with blackberry, blueberry, and plum, supported by vibrant acidity and polished tannins. Hints of cocoa add depth, leading to a warm, extended finish. Aged for 16 months in a mix of French oak and foudre, followed by time in stainless steel, this wine achieves a refined balance of structure and elegance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/blockquote\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eExpert Reviews\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cblockquote\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWine Advocate, 93 Points · 2023 Vintage · Reviewed September 2025\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe 2023 Pinot Noir Russian River Valley is blended from several vineyards, including Bootlegger’s Hill, Giusti Ranch, Jenkins and Treehouse, and offers a lovely high-toned, red-fruited expression that is reflective of the cool growing season.
