Russian River Valley
2020 Bootlegger's Hill Pinot Noir
This one-time moonshiner site, deep in the Sonoma Coast hills, was planted by Charlie Chenoweth to a large array of high-quality Pinot Noir selections. The nose is filled with bright muddled cherry, Five Spice, Redwood forest floor and dried cranberry. The palate is full of sweetly textured coating tannins that are rich and full while also elegant. Cascades of fruit and spice complete this fascinating Russian River Pinot Noir. Bootlegger’s Hill produced one of its finest vintages in 2020.
