Russian River Valley Pinot Noir 2022

Polished, sure, but maybe a little too polished. The cherries are ripe, the spice is there, and it’s as smooth as it wants to be. It’s good, don’t get me wrong, but it plays it safe—like the wine equivalent of a well-done cover song. Good with roasted duck. — 21 days ago

Walter Hansel remains a favorite Pinot Noir for me. Big on fruit and peppery with a hint of fennel. This Winery never disappoints. Sipping 2018 . — a month ago

One of the best CA producers of Pinot. Especially, for the money.

Russian River Valley Pinot Noir 2021

Drank with Christmas dinner, with honey baked ham, with brown sugar sweet potatoes. Too fruit forward for me. Overwhelms the other flavors a little. Might be too young. — a month ago

Foss Vineyard Pinot Noir 2020

Drinking Pinot for Thanksgiving from a vineyard 4 miles away is pretty special! Aged a few years before opening shows a little bricking at the edges with a pale red with orange hue to the color. Big nose bursts forth out of the glass with peppery notes of spiced red fruits, plum and strawberry perhaps, with a slight floral element throughout. The Medium body brings on pleasant notes of vanilla and baking spice, with slight tannin, big plum and ripe red fruits, a hint of brandy and a refined floral element to the finish. — 2 months ago

Happy New Year! 🎉🎆🎈🎊 🧨

Excellent vintage. I think even better for Pinot than Cabernet in some cases.

Dark cherry bingo.

If you haven’t had a 10-15 year in bottle WS, you have missed special.

Merry Christmas! 🎅🎄🎁 ❄️ ⛄️
