Wine Review: This bright red colored Pinot Noir from WindRacer opens with a coffee and black cherry bouquet with a hint of candied strawberry. On the palate, this wine is medium bodied, soft, balanced and has medium acidity. The flavor profile is a mild cherry with notes of gentle minerality and mild strawberry and a hint of cranberry. The finish is dry and its flavors drift away nicely. The Panel suggested pairing this Pinot with grilled red snapper or grilled pork. Enjoy - KWGTP

Winemaker Notes: Aromas of dark cherry, mocha and sassafras immediately introduces you to the bold personality of the Russian River Valley. The robust aromas give way to rich cocoa powder followed by hints of earthiness. Perfectly balanced, the full-bodied structure displays great concentration and firm but refined tannins. This lush mouthfeel showcases the lively characteristics and quality the Russian River Valley is known for.
