2007 Winery Block Pinot Noir - A Single Vineyard Pinot Noir
This dark red Russian River Valley Pinot Noir showcases bright aromas of strawberry, cherry, raspberry, vanilla and cinnamon spice. Barrel selected from lots originating from the vineyards surrounding the winery, this single-vineyard blend has a light texture and flavors of pie cherry, vanilla and semi-sweet chocolate.
Aromatic with a slightly tart finish, this wine would perfectly pair with grilled duck prepared with a cherry reduction sauce.
