Accolades: 94 points Editors’ Choice, Wine Enthusiast Feb 2023 issue
2021 is our first vintage of Russian River Valley Pinot Noir. Grapes are sourced from three vineyards. Pratt Hall Road Vineyard is located on the cusp of the Santa Rosa Plains and Laguna Ridge on valley benchland with classic Goldridge sandy soils. Bacigalupi Frost Ranch is nestled between the Westside Road and the Russian River on a gentle knoll with cross-bedded sand and gravel soils. Dutton Ranches Marten’s Vineyard is located in the Green Valley, approximately 11 miles from the ocean on Goldridge soil.
Winemaker notes: A dark ruby color in the glass. The nose delivers notes of cherry and clove. On the palate, the wine is voluptuous with flavors of pomegranate and black raspberry, finishing with silky tannins and mouth-watering acidity.
Serve with a broad range of recipes from cioppino or richly flavored pork dishes to moderately spiced Asian fusion cuisine. This wine will continue to reveal itself over the next 3–5 years.
