Russian River Valley
2017 Little Boot Vineyard Russian River Valley Pinot Noir
95 Points - Wine Enthusiast, May 2020
This young vineyard has created a lower alcohol, higher acidity wine with lots of power. Maybe we should call it Big Boot! The nose is filled with notes of cherry, violet, mint and cedar. The natural acidity brightens and expands the palate and sets this wine apart from the other Pinots in our single vineyard line up. This wine is sure to gain depth, roundness and complexity with further aging.
