9.2

Takes substantial fruit and alcohol, which can so easily overwhelm Russian River Pinot noir, and delivers freshness and clarity. It's generous, but not overgenerous; ripeness somehow stays in check. In no way cerebral, but super delicious. Pomegranate and cranberry fruit dominates.

Very fruity. Starts with sweet plum and a tinge of grapefruit and transitions very smoothly to a licorice finish. I really, really enjoy this wine!
