The 2021 Pinot Noir (Russian River Valley) is dense, heavy and explosive. All the classic Russian River exuberance comes through, but amplified in all of the good ways and none of the bad. Even with all the richness and intensity, the 2021 retains good freshness as well as energy. A touch of whole clusters brightens the finish nicely.

Bright and punchy, with a host of delicious mulberry and pomegranate notes, carried by crunchy acidity and backed by light anise and potpourri accents on the finish. Shows nice racy energy underneath. Drink now through 2028. 7,708 cases made.
