2007 Rodney Strong Reserve Pinot Noir Russian RVR
93pts(WS)“Tight and compact, with dark, potent, concentrated fruit that fleshes out, with mineral, dried dark berry fruit, spice and tobacco notes, gaining body and complexity. Drink now through 2013.” James Laube, March 31, 2009.
winery notes: The Russian River
Valley is well established as one of the premier pinot noir growing
regions in the world, and we have been growing and making pinot noir
here for forty years. Our Reserve is the winemaker’s artisanal blend of
individual wines made from time tested meticulously farmed sections of
some of the very best vineyards in Russian River Valley. Each lot is
vinified separately, aged in our finest barrels, and then selected by
the winemakers for complexity, concentration, and grace. It is
literally a matter of taste. Soft and
rich, with layers of red cherry, raspberry, cola, caramel, and a hint
of Asian spice, this impressive, full-bodied wine is aged in 100%
French oak, which adds an elegant toasty vanilla character. Enjoy this
voluptuous pinot noir now and over the next 2 to 4 years.
