The previous bottle of this I said was atypical of the house style. This bottle was exactly the same, however upon discovering that I plugged it up and revisited it 24hrs later to find a transformation had occurred. It loosened up on those heavy brandied cherry notes and showed the more typical spice and orange peel I love in rivers marie.

Plush and opulent with raspberry, cola, blue plum. Every bit of full throttle Sonoma coast Pinot Noir in the best way.

Classic TRB. Tart cherry, citrus, and forest floor nose. Bright berry, earthy mushroom mid palate, and then cranberry and citrus finish.
