A dead ringer for cherry cola on the nose, this wine is classic Russian River Pinot. The palate gives plenty of juicy cherry-raspberry fruit, along with cinnamon-spice mélange and enough tannin to handle roasted meats or accompany richer salmon dishes.

Ripe youthful ruby color, the 2022 Pinot Noir Russian River Valley is from several sites anchored around Barbieri Vineyard and is aromatic of ripe red cherries, fresh roses, forest herbs, and cola spice. Pure, juicy, and medium-bodied, it has fine tannins and a clean feel with a lot of charm. Drink it now or over the next 4-5 years.

A light, open-knit bramble matrix supports this red's bouncy cherry and raspberry fruit, backed by a dash of anise on the finish. Drink now through 2026. 3,019 cases made.
