All the generic positive hallmarks of a Sonoma Pinot coalesce into this consistently popular and widely distributed bottle: Cherry cola, red ripened cherries, a whiff of vanilla, cocoa, black tea and cedar. The body is medium-low but the acids prove mouth watering counterparts of a solid tannic structure.

Black cherry, licorice root, sarsaparilla, a bit herbal. Sweet berry and tannic finish.

Nice. Clean. The RRV cola and forest notes are not as pronounced as hoped. But this is a beautiful wine.

Pure red and blue fruit, some cola and menthol, sweet tannic finish.

Two Pinot Noir lovers, Adam and Dianna Lee, founded Siduri Wines in 1994, producing only four and a half barrels of Pinot Noir that first vintage. Now they make over 10,000 cases of Pinot Noir. Dark Ruby with dark rich fruit aromas and sweet smoky spice, aged 17% in new French oak. On the palate blackberry and ripe cherry flavors with sweet cacao and baking spice. Focused soft tannins, balanced acidity on long finish, very nice!

Light and fruity RRV that is a bit two dimensional. But two I like: cherry cola and forest floor. Nice balance.

Clear Ruby with red fruit aromas. On the palate strawberry and raspberry flavors adding some leather and smoky oak tones. Lingering finish ends a little spicy. Nice! Had this about a year ago. Tasting well now!

Crushed violets, ripe plum, blackberry jam, & cracked black pepper. Long on the aromatics & finish. Rich, jammy, balanced, & tasty! Classic RRV style.
