Russian River Selection Pinot Noir 2016

Delicious. Especially the second day. Augurs well for aging this high QPR Pinot. My 9.1 includes 0.3 over the super solid 8.8 I’d give it on taste alone, b/c of that QPR—I can drink 4 times of this yummy wine as I can afford to drink of a 9.4 that costs $100/bottle. Cherries, of course. Some structure I expect to grow in time. Bit of vanilla. Light-medium body with bigger flavors than one might expect given that fact. Pretty light red in the bowl. 14% alcohol is too dang high for Pinot noir. #CAWineProblems. — 5 years ago
