We had the 2016 Vintage on 3/26-27/33. A good RRV PN. Scents of black cherry and cinnamon. Black cherry, rhubarb and Asian spices on the palate. It really smoothed out on the second night. A good wine for my birthday

I love Moshin but ... maybe just a glitchy moment in aging but this bottle had almost cartoonishly strong vanilla diet cola first impression (50% new barrels). Nice dark fruit and leather eventually emerged so maybe just more age and/ or decanting?

Very good well balanced Classic Russian River Pinot nose. Integrated flavors but faded rather quickly and was still good but best drunk within first 20 minutes.

2009 Family Reserve/ Estate. At 5 yrs old still noticeable tannins, may be best in another few yrs. Delicious now though- a lighter style but plenty if nuance, balance between red and black fruit and leathery notes.

A very nice pinot noir with depth and complexity even for young age. Dark fruit with slightly smoky pallette. After taste cuts a bit short but price to quality is great

Light fruit on mid palate. No real kick on front. Lack of elegance on back palate / finish.
