Winemaker Tasting Notes:
This wine comes from Saralee's Vineyard
Russian River Valley. We chose the Dijon 115 and 777 clones from their Pinot Block to produce this wonderful silky Pinot Noir. The nose on this wine in unbelievably inviting and it leads to a fruit forward wine with light spice red cherry and strawberry flavors. This wine is extremely well balanced and provides a great complement to food. We produced less than 300 cases of this wine.
