J Vineyards & Winery
Estate Grown Russian River Valley Pinot Noir
Founded by Judy Jordan in 1986, Ruby with aromas of red fruit, with some earthy floral perfume spice. On the palate flavors of rich ripe red fruits, raspberries, cherries and strawberries, cola, oak and earthy spice. Well balanced, smooth texture, fine tannins, hint of mineral brings this wine to a medium+ length finish ending with rounded earthy notes. Nice!

Apr 15th, 2022Fruit-forward Pinot Noir. Great Pinot nose, and an inelegant but fruity palette that went well with Indian Tandoori. A good exemplar of American-style Pinot Noir.

Apr 10th, 2022Ten years after the vintage, this one is drinking great... Memories of burning up the highway in the rental car and peeling into the tasting room parking lot five minutes before closing... On the nose, still bright cherry and tomato plant... Quite vegetal... On the palate, this is deep cherry with green veins of complexity... Green pepper, fresh sage... This is not a watery-assed Pinot... Much bigger than I expected... This is full-bodied... Eucalyptus showing up in the long finish... I like this a lot.
