Migration (Duckhorn Vineyards)
Russian River Valley Pinot Noir
Plum, cranberry, ginger and Christmas spices - this has all the ingredients of a typical, entry-level Russian River Pinot. Not overly complex, but certainly gratifying.

Jun 26th, 2017A light ruby red color with aromas of red fruit and hints of citrus spice. The 100% Pinot Noir wine was aged for 10 months on French oak, (35% new) before bottling. On the palate, the finished product was medium-body and displayed a predominant focus of red fruit, cherries, perfectly ripe strawberries and red currants. The wine showed polished tannins surrounded by lively acidity and a touch of earthy spices, giving the wine a tremendous balance. Elegant wine at a great price, a real treasure find.
