The 2021 Pinot Noir Russian River Valley, matured for 11 months in 41% new oak, is very expressive and generous this vintage. It has a medium ruby-purple color, and the nose is bursting with cranberry, raspberry, red cherry and wafts of tea leaves, mushroom, orange peel and wildflowers. The medium-bodied palate is full of powerful fruit, delivered in a seamless frame, and it reveals latent spicy accents on the long finish. 3,475 cases were made.

Alluring, with black tea and warmed raspberry and boysenberry compote notes leading the way, backed by additional mulberry, hibiscus and violet accents. Reveals racy acidity that's nicely buried on the finish, allowing this to conclude with a flamboyant flourish of fruit. Drink now through 2030. 3,475 cases made.
