Note di degustazione
The 2017 Pinot Noir Alberigi is pretty shy today, which is not especially typical for this wine. I see less Russian River exuberance than is typically the case. To be sure, the 2017 was far more expressive when I tasted it a year ago. Perhaps it is going through a closed phase. Sweet tobacco, cedar, spice and floral nuances add aromatic depth, but the fruit is a bit in the background today. I would give it a few years in bottle.

Radio-Coteau's 2017 Pinot Noir Alberigi shows a more focused, tense expression of the Russian River Valley. Beams of tannin and bright acids give the wine much of its distinctive shape. Lavender, rose petal, mint and spice notes all develop in the glass, but it is the wine's translucent energy that stands out most. I very much like the sense of vibrancy here.
