" tantalizing aromas of blue fruit, brown sugar leading to a thought-provoking finish of cranberry, blackberry and a complex finish". Another very enjoyable wine out of the Stone House vineyards of Spicewood, Texas — 5 years ago

@Delectable Wine: This is Ron Yates’ Oso Estrella label Russian River Valley Pinot.

This is Dutton Ranch fruit from Russian River Valley. Ron Yates Winery in TX Hill Country makes this special wine and I was extremely impressed. Very nice @Ron Yates

I opened this alongside the ‘14 Spicewood Russian River Valley Pinot to see how these RRV fruit pinots made by Texans fared against each other. To me, this was the clear cut winner. ABV in this is about 1% higher than the Spicewood (14.1 vs 14.9) but it’s well hidden. Nose on this had more of a fruitcake note alongside bing cherries and cola. Really nice complexity and acidity from start to finish...cedar, rhubarb pie, dark chocolate covered cherries, and a spice box type finish. A lovely RRV Pinot. — 8 years ago

This bold wine is quite dark in the glass and it offers up a nose of black raspberries, cedar, clove, vanilla and a hint of mint. On the palate, it’s brawny. Big notes of dark fruit mingle with those oak spices in a way that’s both fruity and savory. The tannic structure is toothy, so this wine wants a steak. — 4 years ago

Another dip in to my TX wine journey, but this time with a twist. Spicewood sources fruit from Cali and WA state for a few of their bottles and makes them at the winery. This RRV Pinot is from Wohler Vineyard (I believe Sojourn makes a nice Pinot from here).

Ruby red in the glass. The nose on this is quite spot on. Black cherry, maple-birch wood, and stewed blackberries. Acidity is medium. Fairly light on the front and mid-palate but a LOT of flavor on the backend...strawberry and raspberries preserve, herbal seasoning. This wine benefited from food being paired with it (my wife’s awesome cauliflower crust spinach and chicken pizza in particular). — 8 years ago

This pink wine is quite rich in color. Its hue is a cross between salmon orange and copper, looking very much like roses. The nose is a blast of strawberries, green parts and all, with an earthy herbal streak and a line of black pepper. On the palate, the brash rosé comes on like a red wine, with tons of flavor and a refreshing acidity. This wine’s pairing ability can reach from salads’n’seafood territory into pork chops, burgers and cheese plates. — 4 years ago

I had the ‘16 vintage of this a few months back in comparison to the Ron Yates SB. I thought the ‘16 was nice, but that the Ron Yates SB was better in every aspect. @Ron Yates told me, in his opinion, the ‘17 Spicewood was better than both the ‘16 Spicewood and the Ron Yates ‘16.

It’s 103 here in TX, and I’m sweating more than this bottle, so it’s prime SB weather.

I’m happy to report that I think I’m aligned with Ron here. In comparison to the Spicewood ‘16, the aromatics on this just jump out of the glass with tons of fruit. Kiwi, lychee, and peach...wow! Great nose. Sharp acidity highlighted by honeyed grapefruit, limestone and chalk. Well done, Ron! — 8 years ago
