Description
Sonoma is a complex mosaic of soil types - more than in all of France - and diverse mesoclimates. The Russian River Valley has a long, cool growing season and experiences plentiful fog cover. These factors combine to make it excellent territory for Burgundian grapes. Pinot grown here has noted complexity and balance and impressive flavours, thanks to the slow ripening of the grapes. You can expect this to offer richly articulated dark berry with herbs, earth and mineral undertones. Enjoy with blackened mutton.

Tasting Notes
Shows a touch of gravelly, dusty earth and cedary oak amid the supple blackberry and wild berry flavors, accented by a savory herb edge. Ends clean and spicy. Drink now. Score - 90. (James Laube, winespectator.com, Sept. 30, 2015)
