The flavors are typical of Russian River Valley Pinot Noir, not over-ripe or over-oaked, but with plenty of red fruit, barely ripe strawberries and cherry stones, and black tea. What really makes it stand out, though, is the velvety mouth feel and lingering finish. It is a delightful experience for the mouth, with food or without.
